Don't Talk To Strangers

Rick Springfield · Venus In Overdrive/live In Rockford [2010]

When you were just a young girl and still in school

How come you never learned the golden rule?

Don't talk to strange men, don't be a fool

I'm hearing stories, I don't think that's cool.



Why don't ya tell me

Someone is loving you

'Cause you're my girl

Some say it's no longer true

You're seeing some slick Continental dude.



I'm beggin' you, please



[Chorus]

Don't talk to strangers

Baby, don't ya talk

Don't talk to strangers

You know he'll only use you up

Don't talk, don't talk

Don't talk

Don't talk, don't talk

To him

Nobody

Don't talk, don't talk

Nobody ever told you



Now tell me

How's life in the big city?

I hear the competition's tough, baby

That's a pity

And every man's an actor

Every girl is pretty

I don't like what's getting back to me



Now who's this

Don Juan I've been hearing of?

Love hurts when only one's in love

Now did ya fall at first sight

Or did you need a shove



I'm beggin' you, please...



[Chorus til end]
