lyrics

STOP, LOOK, AND LISTEN

You better stop, look, and listen, before you take a chance.
You better stop, look and listen, before you try romance,
You ought to stop, look, and listen, until you’re sure,
‘cause you know that prevention, is better than cure.

Let me tell you just what happened to a friend of mine,
On his very special honey he spent every dime,
When he finally said "O baby will you say - I do”
She said "Why, I would never, ever marry you!”

You better stop, look, and listen, before you take a chance,
You better stop, look, and listen, before you try romance,
You ought to stop, look, and listen until you’re sure
Cause you know that prevention is better than cure.

If you have a special sweetheart that you think’s for you,
Then before you pop the question, here’s the thing to do,
Say you’re in financial trouble and you need some dough,
From her answer you can tell if you should stop or go!

So won't you stop, look and listen before you take a chance,
You better stop look and listen, before you try romance,
You ought to stop, look, and listen, until you’re sure,
cause you know that prevention, is better than cure.
