Don't Play Around (Soundcheck, Hammersmith Odeon, 1980)

[Intro] One, two One, two, three, four One, two, three, four [Verse 1] He stuck a knife right into her gut I wanna tell you she was lucky with what she got But what she got was not enough [Chorus] She played around Don't play around [Verse 2] I tried to tell her he was not so dumb But she was as low as they come She was scum, she was scum [Chorus] She played around Don't play around 'Cause if you give your love to someone and that someone is bad If you give your love to someone and they make you mad If you give your love to someone, it's so sad Don't play around [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] He left her lyin' in a pool of blood She was cryin', "Oh my God, oh my God" She was no good, she was no good [Chorus] She played around Don't play around She'd be laughin' and dancin' the night away She'd be laughin' and dancin' with any guy that came her way But as her life's blood slipped away, I heard her say "Don't play around" [Post-Chorus] Oh, don't play around Don't play around Don't play around [Guitar Solo]
