Song Lyrics

Mama always told me, papa always warned me
Don't hang around with boys like you
Teacher always told me never to be naughty
Don't mess around with boys like you
Mama always told me, papa always warned me
Don't hang around with boys like you
Teacher always told me never to be naughty
Don't mess around with boys like you

They talk a lot
Your friends say he's troublesome
"Don't do it, you'll get hurt"
But, they don't know where I'm coming from
'Cause if I do make you the one, I could never love another one
I'm just saying, give it a chance
I don't see what you're running from
Love is pain, love is risk
On the flip side, love is bliss
Honestly, let's go for this
Take a shot, not gonna miss
All started with just a kiss
I walked up and grabbed your wrists
Fast forward the crash course
Now we're here, imagine this (you know)
Love comes for a season or a reason
Some things you gotta know before you leavin'
Know this goes against everythin' you believe in
But, I'm crazy about you, this ain't pretend

Mama always told me, papa always warned me
Don't hang around with boys like you
Teacher always told me never to be naughty
Don't mess around with boys like you
Mama always told me, papa always warned me
Don't hang around with boys like you
Teacher always told me never to be naughty
Don't mess around with boys like you

Label me as a bad guy
Safe bet, I'm the anti
Chastise, throw dirt on me
That's how it is, don't ask why
But, everyone's got their opinion
But I don't know why cats lie
I would never let that fly
Honestly, I'm not that guy
Now, don't believe everything you hear
All these people wanna interfere
F*ck 'em all, it's our world
Can't let 'em get into here
We could really build something strong
Think where we could be in a year
You've gotta give me a fair chance
Before you tell me we're finished here
Already know you've been hurt before
Understand what you're afraid of
Talk's cheap, actions speak
Let me show you, I'm demonstrative
We could rewrite the whole stories
Let's get it started, let's get creative
'Cause I'm the one, honestly and loyalty is what I'm made of

Mama always told me, papa always warned me
Don't hang around with boys like you
Teacher always told me never to be naughty
Don't mess around with boys like you
Mama always told me, papa always warned me
Don't hang around with boys like you
Teacher always told me never to be naughty
Don't mess around with boys like you
