You Better Watch Your Step Before You Fall in Love Lyrics by John A. Salerno

2020

You say you’re not feelin’ very hungry
Still you wanna get some food to eat
You’re hurting and it’s just not stopping
You walk into the grocers, I’m talkin’ like some busy city street
A market monster non-stop shoppin’
But then you think about his lame excuses
You turn your shopping cart into a wall of juices
Maintenance with a mop on three
And by the way
She cautions me:
You better watch your step before you fall
You better watch you step on three
You better watch your step before you fall in love
Back in the safety of your room
You break a glass — you trip over the broom
You think of him — your head starts stеaming
Every day’s another lesson to lеarn
The simple things — the toast you even burn
The smoke is thick alarms start screaming
You jump up on the bed to see in
You feel around for where the latch is
“You never wrote me into your will”
Calls a neighbor through the smoke
But it’s no joke
You better watch yourself before you fall
You better watch yourself girl
You better watch yourself before you fall in love
And then you’re tryin’ to get some rest in bed
You toss, you turn, you call him back instead
You never learn, you wind up crawling
You want to use your head
Your instincts tell you move full steam ahead
They’re yellin’ at you “Quit your stalling!”
You tippy-toe on down the stairs
You trip into the neighbor’s chair
“Don’t worry Mrs. Smith yeah I’m fine!”
As she stares, she adds these lines:
You better watch your step before you fall
You better watch your step from now on
You better watch your step before you fall in love
You better watch your step before you fall
You better watch your step there girl
You better watch your step before you fall in love
You better watch your step before you fall
You better watch your step from now on
You better watch yourself before you fall in love
