Don't Take Love Lightly (MAGA Girl)

Don’t Take Love Lightly (MAGA Girl)

You can tell me that the sun won’t rise in the morning
Tell me that the river’s gonna roll uphill
You can tell me that the wind wont blow but one way
I’ll believe you, I will
You can tell me that the farm’s going under
Tell me that this dog’s no good
Tell what I’m hearing ain’t thunder
Tell me what I’m feelin’ ain’t good
But in this age of silent rage when there’s trouble at your door
Don’t do to me what you done to him
Don’t do what you’ve done before
Darling look me straight in the eye
And say you wont take love lightly no more

You can coast on the flat, you can glide in the hilly
Spit polish your Chevy or your Ford
You can live off the fat you can go and get silly
Follow Satan or follow the lord
You can drive up and down main street
Behind your flags and your guns
But won’t you look like a grievous fool
When all your days are done
‘Cause in the haze of your glory days when there’s trouble at your door
Don’t do to me what you done to him
Don’t do what you’ve done before
Darling look me straight in the eye
And say you wont take love lightly no more

As you always loved to tell me
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
Of all the things you said back then
Just one thought remains
You never did your homework
You never paid the bill
You never tole the simple truth
Looks like you never will

Whatever happened to the tears in your eyes
Whatever happened to the blood on the floor
Whatever happened to “my love never dies”
Whatever happened to “I can’t take anymore”
Whatever ill-fate might befall you
If ever sweet grace picks you up
Whoever may or may not call you
Should ever love fill your cup

In the gloom of your lonely room
If I show up at your door
Don’t do to me what you done to him
Don’t do what you’ve done before
Darling look me straight in the eye
And say you won’t take love lightly no more
