You'd better love him long
Or let him be
If you hurt him
You'll answer to me
Your reputation
Follows you to town
The hearts you have broken
Are scattered all around
In just a few days
You and your smooth ways
Stole the only love
I ever had
You'd better love him long
Or let him be
If you hurt him
You'll answer to me
The sound of you sweet tone
Stole his love away
You've got him believing
Everything you say
Oh yes you can take him
But if you forsake him
You'll regret the day
That you were born
You'd better love him long
Or let him be
If you hurt him
You'll answer to me
