    Lyrics

    A dark-eyed girl with a load of hurt
    Mama always said be careful
    Took most of it with her, didn't leave a word
    Mama always said, be careful with your love

    Sometimes the truth's too hard to learn
    Mama always said be careful
    Can't face it straight, you find a way to turn
    Mama always said, be careful with your love

    All jacked up on Saturday night
    Mama always said be careful
    She'll be a stranger in Sunday's light
    Mama always said, be careful with your love

    Too late for the cops, you're hopin'
    Mama always said be careful
    Foot on the gas and one eye open
    Mama always said, be careful with your love

    Oh, Mama always told you, boy
    It's you I'm thinking of
    You're my pride and joy
    Be careful with your love

    It'd break her hear to see her boy this way
    Mama always said be careful
    A whole two-six to get through the day
    Mama always said, be careful with your love

    And the girly bars that you walk past
    Mama always said be careful
    Got a hollow face in the window glass
    Mama always said, be careful with your love

    You got two eyes and you got two lungs
    Mama always said be careful
    You only got one heart, just that one
    Mama always said, be careful with your love
