A Warning (Original)

[Verse] I met a man in New Orleans He said he loved me and he didn't mean it He bought me roses from the median Some sugarcane And that was all I met a man from the mountains He said he loved me and he didn't doubt it He bought me books and he gave me mountains He built a wall And that was all [Prechorus] They all say [Chorus] "I love you Baby Don't you be crazy Stay here with me Babe Won't you see Babe Don't you run away Babe You're gonna pay Babe I'm gonna save you Gonna save you I'm gonna save you" [Verse 2] I met a man from the ocean He said he loved me But he didn't show it He bought me seashells and merlot and He disappeared And that was all I met a man from the city He said he loved me and he showed me pity He showed me beauty and it wasn't pretty He disappeared And that was all [Prechorus] They all say [Chorus] "I love you Baby Don't you be crazy Stay here with me Babe Won't you see Babe Don't you run away Babe You're gonna pay Babe I'm gonna save you Gonna save you I'm gonna save you"
