That on love street they've got signs
She said, listen to me, son, it's so
Just how a love would feel
That say watch for falling victims
And I know
Now, I sit and wait and wonder as I cry myself to sleep
Of one gone bad
You can take one through the heart

You know, love will cut you down
I got tangled in the arms
But still I had to find out
Dreams get run down in the night
Let me tell ya, I've been down there
Lord and yours might be the next one

And goodbyes are loaded guns
Why I couldn't heed what my mama said?
And you ain't yet a man, hear what I say

Another casualty of love
Now, I've come to realize what love can do
Down where lies'll cut you deep
And why love street still got signs
Now, her every word rings clear and true

She said, don't go down there boy
