Yeah, you come around here knockin' at my door beggin' me
To take another chance on you
Well, you sure do sound sorry yeah, you sure do look sad
But there's a few things I won't doI don't do my leapin' till I take a good look
I don't skate around on thin ice
I don't run with scissors and I don't play with fire
And I don't let the same dog bite me twice
No, I don't let the same dog bite me twiceWell, every time I start the weekend I can hear my mamas voice
Sayin' baby, darlin' don't be no fool
Though you don't know how bad I want to throw you a bone
But that would just be breakin' the rulesDon't do my leapin' till I take a good look
Don't skate around on thin ice
Don't run with scissors and I don't play with fire
And I don't let the same dog bite me twice
No, I don'tI don't go swimmin' right after I eat
I don't go jugglin' knives
Don't cross the street without lookin' both ways
And I don't let the same dog bite meDon't do your leapin' till you take a good look
Don't skate around on thin ice, no
Don't run with scissors and I don't play with fire
And you don't let the same dog bite you twice
No, I don't let the same dog bite me twiceCome on now, no my mama didn't raise no fool, son
