Don't you know
Ain't no empty arms can hold you
Ain't no devil can control you
So just get on with the show
Don't you know
Ain't no epic waters boiling
Just your couragousness recoiling
From the ebb and the flow
Don't you know
I ain't had a friend to speak of
That didn't try to cut me when I'm low

You should know, don't you know, baby!

Hey mama,
Your garden never grows
Your love never shows
My deep heart never knows
Hey mama,
You never try and reach me
Your wisdom cannot teach me
Everything you know
Hey mama,
It ain't worth the price you pay
Holding on, afraid you'll let it get away

You should know, don't you know, baby!

Don't you know,
Reservations I'll be making
On and on
Now just a choice that I am making

Don't you know,
I'm just offering my hand
Cause I hate to see you walking
Down there where you stand
Don't you know,
I want to kick over all your mountains
I want to drain all your fountains
Get down to what it's all about right now
Don't you know
You don't know half of the story
So it goes, it should never make you worry

You should know, don't you know, baby!
