Don't Burn Down The Bridge Lyrics by Albert King
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
Your mind's set on leavin'
To a house down a one way street
Say you're gonna lock up all the doors
And throw away the key

Oh, but don't burn down the bridge, darlin'
You just might wanna come back
'Cause the grass ain't no greener
On the other side of the track

Oh, you counted me out, before I could get to bat
All the things are out-ta the Chevrolet
Tomorrow night be drivin' a Cadillac

But don't burn down the bridge, darlin'
You just might wanna come back
'Cause the grass ain't no greener
On the other side of the track

Hey!

All your so called friends
Taught you how to cheat an' lie
Now it seem like you gonna jump
From the fryin' pan to the fire

Oh, but don't burn down your bridge, darlin'
You just might wanna come back
'Cause the grass ain't no greener
On the other side of the track
Your mind's set on leavin'   To a house down a one way street   Say you're gonna lock up all the doors   And throw away the key      Oh, but don't burn down the bridge, darlin'   You just might wanna come back   'Cause the grass ain't no greener   On the other side of the track      Oh, you counted me out, before I could get to bat   All the things are out-ta the Chevrolet   Tomorrow night be drivin' a Cadillac      But don't burn down the bridge, darlin'   You just might wanna come back   'Cause the grass ain't no greener   On the other side of the track      Hey!      All your so called friends   Taught you how to cheat an' lie   Now it seem like you gonna jump   From the fryin' pan to the fire      Oh, but don't burn down your bridge, darlin'   You just might wanna come back   'Cause the grass ain't no greener   On the other side of the track
