[00:17.92] When I was just a little wide eyed child
[00:20.10] Trying to beat the heat
[00:23.34] I saw that cool clear water running in the creek
[00:31.02] I climbed up on the highest branch in a tall pine tree
[00:38.88] I closed my eyes and held my breath
[00:43.87] And I heard my mama call to me
[00:47.62] She said you better look before you leap
[00:50.97] You might find yourself in way too deep
[00:54.84] There may be danger that you can't see
[00:58.77] You better look before you leap
[01:02.08] Later on, I was growing up
[01:07.27] Talking to my best friend
[01:11.27] I told her I had kissed a boy
[01:15.76] And I wanted to do it again
[01:18.82] She said, let's go see my big sister
[01:22.81] Maybe she can talk some sense
[01:26.87] She's in a world of trouble
[01:30.86] And she's the voice of experience
[01:33.98] Her sister told us look before you leap
[01:38.91] You might find yourself in way too deep
[01:42.65] There may be danger that you can't see
[01:46.65] You better look before you leap
[01:50.83] Chances will be taken
[02:26.46] It's easy to go too far
[02:30.64] The more you think about it
[02:35.19] The better off you are
[02:38.58] Now someone's coming with a proposition
[02:45.21] And I think I smell a rat
[02:49.45] I say wait a minute mister
[02:53.07] I want to think about that
[02:56.83] I take a little time to listen
[03:00.76] To the voices inside my head
[03:04.38] It's my mama and my best friend's sister
[03:08.75] And I remember what it was they said
[03:12.31] They said you better look before you leap
[03:16.61] You might find yourself in way too deep
[03:20.67] There may be danger that you can't see
[03:24.43]
[03:24.96] You better look before you leap You better look before you leap You better look before you leap
