The Company You Keep
[Intro]
Yes, you're known by the company you keep
[Verse 1]
You say you're doing nothing wrong, I don't believe you are
I'm only trying to help you, Sis, before you go too far
'Cause I think you're an angel, but folks think that you're cheap
'Cause you're known by the company you keep
[Verse 2]
Please listen to your big sister, I feel I know what's best for you
I feel that I must warn you, sis, that's the least that I could do
I'm not accusing you of anything, I know it's fun, you see
But you're known by the company you keep
[Verse 3]
The company you keep keeps you out too long
Mom and dad don't go to sleep until you get home
Sis, you're gettin' in too deep, you'd better look before you leap
'Cause you're known by the company you keep
[Outro]
Sis, you're gettin' in too deep, the road of life is steep
And you're known by the company you keep
