The Robert Cray Band - Consequences lyrics

(Intro)

Not a day goes by

That a man doesn't have to choose

Between what he wants

What he's afraid to lose

Along comes temptation

And he can't refuse, no

I know the different 'tween wrong and right

Don't make no difference in the middle of the night

Take the bait

You pay the price

It's much too late

For good advice

You know and I know that our good things' through

Because there's consequences for what we do

Consequences for me and you

(Same pattern as above)

I was smokin' and drinkin'

And thinkin' when you walked by

The next thing I knew

I was making up my alibi, yes I was

And all I've done since then

Is lie, lie, lie

I took my chances

Had a real good time

But I'd give my soul

For a little piece of mind

To tell the truth

Is a big mistake

Homes will crumble and hearts will break

Baby, why gamble when there's so much to lose

Because there's consequences for what we do

Consequences for me and you

(Cool drum roll)

(Awesome guitar solo)

Oh, listen baby

It's just common sense

Sooner or later

We're gonna suffer the consequences

To tell the truth

And pay the price

I did not listen to Mama's good advice

You know and I know that our good things' through

Because there's consequences for what we do

Consequences for me and you

Consequences of the things that we do

Consequences for me and you

Yeah

We're gonna have to pay the price, baby

Yeah

We're gonna suffer the consequences

Yeah

For hot lovin'

On the side

Yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah

Consequences, baby

Hot lovin'

On the side
