But it's better, baby, to be alone
It's good, good to be careful
But it's so much better to be alone
I know your mama told you
They're all out to get next
Your own daddy walked away
So your mama taught you at an early age
You'll find that her advice
It's good, good to be careful
But it's better, baby, to be in love
Let me tell you, let tell you
It's good, good to be careful
But it's so much better to be in love
Holds true what so many men
You'll wind up like a sitting duck
Now there's an old saying
Be careful, in less than time
you make your worst mistake
It's good, good to be careful
But it's better, to be loved
Let me tell you, let me tell you, it's good
It's so good to be together
But it's better, to be in love
It's good good, good to be careful
But it's better, baby, to be loved
Let me tell you, let me tell you
It's good, good to be careful
But it's so much better to be loved
