[Chorus]

Gm CMamaw used to say, "Don't you Go too far
G GmAnd don't you Go whistling after dark
Gm CAnd never look too hard up into the trees
G GmNo, you may not like what you see
Gm CThere's a strange shade of blue in the porch lights
G GmAnd things that call your name in the dead of the night
Gm CKeep away from the fog that moves against the window
G GmNothing out there's your friend"
