But you can't make him drink
You can send a kid to college
But you can't make him think
You'll never miss your water, baby
Till the well runs dry
And you'll never miss me, baby
Till I say good-bye
Mm hm, you'd better heed my warning
The straw that broke the camel's back
Didn't have to be so big
And when you ran off and left me, baby
I almost blew my wig
They say he who has the last laugh
Always laughs the best
And I'm gonna laugh louder, baby
Than all the rest
Mm hm, baby, you'd better heed
You'd better heed my warning
If you want me to get out, baby
You know you don't have to push
But you'll find a bird in hand
Is worth two in the bush
There's no need to lock the barn door
When the cow is gone
But you're gonna miss me, baby
On some frosty dawn
Mm hm, you know you'd better heed
You'd better heed my warning
It's a long, long road
That don't have a turn
You have to be an early bird
If you wanna catch a worm
They say absence makes
The heart grow fonder
So it's plain to see
If the grass look greener yonder
Baby, that's where I'm gonna be
Mm hm, baby, you know you'd better heed
You'd better heed my warning
You can lead a horse to water But you can't make him drink You can send a kid to college But you can't make him think You'll never miss your water, baby Till the well runs dry And you'll never miss me, baby Till I say good-bye Mm hm, you'd better heed my warning The straw that broke the camel's back Didn't have to be so big And when you ran off and left me, baby I almost blew my wig They say he who has the last laugh Always laughs the best And I'm gonna laugh louder, baby Than all the rest Mm hm, baby, you'd better heed You'd better heed my warning If you want me to get out, baby You know you don't have to push But you'll find a bird in hand Is worth two in the bush There's no need to lock the barn door When the cow is gone But you're gonna miss me, baby On some frosty dawn Mm hm, you know you'd better heed You'd better heed my warning It's a long, long road That don't have a turn You have to be an early bird If you wanna catch a worm They say absence makes The heart grow fonder So it's plain to see If the grass look greener yonder Baby, that's where I'm gonna be Mm hm, baby, you know you'd better heed You'd better heed my warning Explain Request ×
