[Verse 1]
Well, you're standing on the corner, flagging all the girls you see
Now do like I say and let those ladies be
You know that's wrong, man, you know that's wrong
I'm just tryin' to tell you - that's how you got killed before
[Verse 2]
That big girl you met who got a big guy for a pal
Who'll put knots on your head for messing with his gal
So take it easy, man, you better take it slow
I'm just trying to tell you - that's how you got killed before, oh
[Instrumental Break including Trumpet, Tenor Saxophone, and Trombone Solos]
[Verse 3]
Oh well, you wouldn't listen to me, you got two black eyes
That's what you get, man, for messing with men's wives
So take it easy, well let those women go
I'm just trying to tell you - that's how you got killed before
