There's a man outside my door tonight |
|
He cries for help, he sings a pleading song |
|
Well times are tough for everyone |
|
Gotta hold on to what |
|
I gotJust kind of cruise along |
|
Well I do want to be helpful |
|
But it's cold and |
|
I'm told you can't be too careful |
|
Out of the mouth of a mother |
|
Into the hands of a brother |
|
Into the heart of a lover |
|
Out of the hands of another |
|
You can never tell who your neighbor is |
|
Or what he's doin' at night or who his friends are |
|
Well you don't know where he's from |
|
Or where he's been or who he knows |
|
You know you can't be too careful these days |
|
Well I do want to be helpful |
|
Whoa but it's cold and |
|
I'm told he might just be the devil |
|
Out of the mouth of a mother |
|
Into the hands of a brother |
|
Into the heart of a lover |
|
And out of the hands of another |
|
Well I don't take chances, |
|
I don't take time to see |
|
And I don't take nothing from nobody, no way not me |
|
Out of the mouth of a mother |
|
Into the hands of a brother |
|
Into the heart of a lover |
|
Out of the hands of another |
|
Out of the mouth of a mother |
|
Into the hands of a brother |
|
Into the heart of a lover |
|
And out of the hands of child |
|
Into the eyes of a child |
|
Into the ears of a child |
|
Into the heart of a child |
|
Into the heart of a child |
|
Into the heart of a child |
