Don`t You Burn That Bridge

 

Someone's always bound to get under your skin

that's about the time your patience runs thin

is it time to say please and be twice as nice

or turn the other cheek and be cold as ice

they don't realize how hard you work everyday

why don't they ever have something good to say

when somethin' you believe in is a friendly fact

people always talkin' trash behind your back

oh babeee, oooohhhhh babeee

that's the way this life is

 

Critics like to hide behind the printed word

intending to convey precisely what they've heard

no doubt they are readin from a different book

truth of the matter is it needs a deeper look

your not walking in these shoes you don't know what it's like

you're not living in our world at times it's wrong what you write

most times what you portray just isn't fair at all

on the weight of your opinions carreers could fall

oh babeeee, oooohhhh babeeee,

that's the way this life is

 

Don't you burn that bridge

Don't you burn that bridge

I don't think ya oughta

could come back to haunt ya

So Don't You Burn That Bridge

Oh Don't You Burn That Bridge

No Don't You Burn That Bridge

 

Foooourty Foooour years tryin to get a break

can't ya help us out for heavens sake

so much disrespect that you dish out

you're makin' me see red I wanna scream and shout

you don't realize how hard we work everyday

why don't you ever have something good to say

when something you believe in is a friendly fact

why people always talk the trash behind your back

oh babeeee, oooohhhh babeeee

that's the way this life is

 

Don't You Burn That Bridge

Don't You Burn That Bridge

I don't think ya oughta

Could come back to haunt ya

So Don't You Burn That Bridge

Oh Don't You Burn That Bridge

No Don't You Burn That Bridge
