stop, look and listen

when i was a little bitty boy

sittin' on my papa's knee

i still remember

every word my papa said to me

now boy if you ever meet

a pretty woman walkin' down the street

you'd better stop real still

look both ways

listen

or you'll get into trouble

when you see her go struttin' by

givin' you that evil eye

if she's got a kind of dreamy look

just enough to get you shook

now boy

don't you lose your head

pay attention what your papa said

you'd better stop real still

look both ways

listen

or you'll get into trouble

she'll drive ya crazy with the way she walks

she'll drive ya crazy with the way she talks

and you'll think you're gonna lose your mind

because a pretty woman looks so fine

and the very first thing you know

you'll be tellin' her you love her

so

you'd better stop real still

look both ways

listen

or you'll get into trouble

yeah

yeah

yeah

yeah.
