Lyrics

I Told You So
Written by Don J. Stevenson

Eat your greens get your sleep
Make your bed and look before you leap
Sit up straight and lock the door
Stay in your shoes and just say no

Spill your guts and walk the line
Tow the mark and know a stitch saves nine
Bob's your uncle cut to the chase
Beat around the bush join the human race

Spoil the child and spare the rod
Make a wish and then you go hog wild
Go to town take my advice
Paint it red and don't think twice

chorus

Seems like lately people ask me for advice  
I know what to tell them now
I tell them once
and then I tell them twice

The whole nine yards take a knee
Watch your step and then you go scot free
Cut the line don't make a peep
Take a hike and then you rinse and repeat

Find your groove and appreciate
You can make a wish but don't be late
Have a nice day don't poke the bear
Let sleeping dogs lay handle with care

chorus

Wise men through history
The knew what to say
I’ll tell you what I think
I’ll tell you with a few cliches

Eat your greens and get your sleep
Make your bed and look before you leap
Sit up straight and lock the door
Stay in your shoes and just say no

Your slippin and a sliden  and a hoochie coo
Flobadub a rubadub and wooptedo
Live and let live here's my advice
cut once and measure twice


End
