[Verse 1]
This here's a story I sing for you
It may sound funny but know it's true
I hope you get it before I'm through
I hope you do
[Verse 2]
I miss the Strawman and Dottie too
I've heard the Lion, the Tinman's blue
I've seen the Witches both good and bad
Well I'm glad I had
[Verse 3]
I held the rabbit, the rabbit died
Talked to the preacher, the preacher lied
I held my mother, my mother cried
Cried for my father
[Chorus]
Yeah, and so please don't talk about life to me
I'vе seen more than most people my agе have seen
And there ain't no rules on how it's gotta be
Think again
Oh and so please don't talk about love to me
'Cause I've given love and I've received
And you know I'm gonna love just who I please
Think again
[Verse 4]
I crossed an ocean and wrote this song
A million people, but I can't find one
I loved Katrina but now she's gone
Gone to my father, yeah
[Verse 5]
Yeah, this here's a story I sing for you
It may sound funny but know it's true
I hope you get it before I'm through
Well I hope you do, you do, you do, you do, you do
[Chorus]
Please don't talk about life to me
I've seen more than most people my age have seen
And there ain't no rules on how it's gotta be
Think again
Oh and so please don't talk about love to me
'Cause I've given love and I've received
And you know I'm gonna love just who I please
Think again
[Bridge]
Think again
[Chorus]
Please don't talk about life to me
I've seen more than most people my age have seen
And there ain't no rules on how it's gotta be
Think again
Oh and so please don't talk about love to me
'Cause I've given love and I've received
And you know I'm gonna love just who I please
Think again
Oh and please don't talk about life to me
(Please don't talk about life)
I've seen more than most people my age have seen
And there ain't no rules on how it's gotta be
(I've seen more)
Think again
Oh and please don't talk about love to me
(Oh and please)
'Cause I've given love and I've received
(Don't talk about love)
'Cause you know I'm gonna love just who I please
Think again
[Outro]
Come on and think again
You've got to think again
Oh, think again
