Lake Effect - Daddy Told Me Lyrics

Daddy told me, "Watch who you spend time with
Guys with killer style
Got the car, the bling, and all the wardrobe
And wrapped it with a killer smile

They make time for only things that serve them
Which may or may not be you
And then they'll take your heart and tear it apart
Leave you on the road for dead
Gettin' up inside your head
Unless you wake up, wake up, and get on home"

Daddy told me, "Watch out for the playboys
Ones who can't get enough
They surround themselves with all the females
Promising all kinds of stuff

Girls will come and go just like the seasons
You wonder how long you've got
And then they'll take your heart and tear it apart
Leave you on the road for dead
Gettin' up inside your head
Unless you wake up, wake up, and get on home"

Love won't guarantee forever
But just make sure that's what you've got
It takes two to stay together
Or you'll be feelin' lonely 'cause he's not what you thought

So, here it is-the moral of my story
The one that I have been told
To find a gem, it takes a good inspection
If you want the real gold

Don't be fooled by glitter and some cheap talk
You're worth more than that,
So they won't take your heart and tear it apart
Leave you on the road for dead
Gettin' up inside your head
Because you woke up, woke up, and got on home
