don't go walking alone, don't go out at night   won't you just stay home, lock your doors tight      oh, when I was young, we were not afraid to run and play   didn't need mother and we had our time to celebrate      don't go walking alone, don't go out at night   won't you just stay home, lock your doors tight      now that I've grown older I've become aware   a little scared, too many widows, popping up everywhere      don't go walking alone, don't go out at night   won't you just stay home, lock your doors tight      I hide from the world that surrounds me   I'm blind to the ways of reality      I just want the world how it should be      I don't go walking alone, don't go out at night   won't you just stay home, lock your doors tight
