[Verse 1]
Did your daddy ever say to you
Never bite off more than you can chew
And to finish anything you start?
If it's an act, don't play the part
You get your courage from a battle of booze
Give me a task and I'll never refuse
I'll leave you with this sobering thought
Get out of the kitchen if it's getting too hot

[Pre-Chorus]
Action speaks louder than words
And there's a yellow streak down your back
You look weak with your tail between your legs
You better face the fact

[Chorus]
You always speak a lot of noise but I know that all you are is talk
Bettеr hold your tongue or you're gonna bite it off
You gotta crawl bеfore you walk
With your foot in your mouth and you're looking like a clown
You better crawl back under your rock
Backed in a corner 'cause you never learned
You gotta crawl before you walk

[Bridge]
Your back's against the wall, where you gonna go?
Now that I'm up above and you're down below
[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 2]
Put up or shut up is what I say
Word games are something that I never play
I don't back down, it's win or lose
I've got the bomb, you wanna light the fuse
Shooting off like a loaded gun
Only blanks, no damage done
Eat your words on a dinner plate
Caught on the hook 'cause you swallowed the bait

[Pre-Chorus]
Action speaks louder than words
And there's a yellow streak down your back
You look weak with your tail between your legs
You better face the fact

[Chorus]
You always speak a lot of noise but I know that all you are is talk
Better hold your tongue or you're gonna bite it off
You gotta crawl before you walk
With your foot in your mouth and you're looking like a clown
You better crawl back under your rock
Backed in a corner 'cause you never learned
You gotta crawl before you walk
[Outro]
Crawl before you walk
Crawl before you walk boy
Crawl before you walk
Crawl before you, crawl before you
You gotta crawl before you walk
