You'd better love him long,
Or let him be
If you hurt him,
You'll answer to me
Your reputation,
Follows you to town
The hearts you have broken,
Are scattered all around
In just a few days,
You and your smooth ways,
Stole the only love,
I ever had
You'd better love him long,
Or let him be
If you hurt him,
You'll answer to me
The sound of you sweet tone,
Stole his love away
You've got him believing,
Everything you say
Oh yes you can take him,
But if you forsake him,
You'll regret the day,
That you were born
You'd better love him long,
Or let him be
If you hurt him,
You'll answer to me
