My daddy told me a long time ago:
Never take candy from a stranger!
I should've thought about that when I met you
I shoulda run away from the danger
Oh! like a child I believed what you said
I let your lies and dreams through my head
I let you have what you wanted
And now you're gone
And let me cussin' 'n cryin' 'n carryin' on (carryin' on)
And the way you hurt me (carryin' on)
And my bad mistakes
I guess I'll have to keep on carryin' on
Until they carry me on
When I'm dead from heartaches
(carryin' on carryin' on oo! oo!)
You moved right in and you took me
'Cause you knew I was impressed
All the time I thought you loved me, yes I did
Now I know I was just another contest
But I'm... I'm walkin' the floor thinkin' about you now
Wonderin' how will I make it without you
I've been a poor, poor poor poor fool to let you do me wrong
To let you leave me cussin' 'n cryin' 'n carryin' on (carryin' on)
And the way you hurt me (carryin' on)
And my bad mistakes (carryin' on)
Well I guess I'll have to keep on carryin' on
(carryin' on)
Til they carry me on when I'm dead from heartaches (carryin' on carryin' on)
Mark my word: you' gonna pay the price
You' gonna need somebody someday somewhere
That's gonna make you think twice
You' gonna need yourself somebody that's gonna turn you on
She'll leave you cussin' 'n cryin' 'n carryin' on (carryin' on)
And the way she'll hurt ya (carryin' on)
'Bout your bad mistakes (carryin' on)
Well I guess you'll have to keep on carryin' on
Til they carry you on when you're dead from heartaches (carryin' on)
'Bout the way you hurt me (carryin' on)
'Bout my bad mistakes (carryin' on)
Well I guess you'll have to keep on carryin' on... Etc
