Be Careful What You Ask For

vs1

I remember my paw tellin me

Hold on to what you got

Fame and money won’t set you free

Hear it’s lonely at the top

He said, son, you never know for shure

What awaits behind the next door

So be careful, real careful, be careful what you ask for 

So be careful, real careful, be careful what you ask for 

Refrain

Be careful what you ask for

Sometimes when dreams come true

Behind that door you discover more

Heartache awaiting you

Be careful what you ask for

You may get what you wish

and discover fate has in store

an unexpected twist

So be careful, real careful, be careful what you ask for 

So be careful, real careful, be careful what you ask for

Folk say one sure way to give God a chuckle

is to sit down and start making plans

Hold onto your hat coz here comes trouble

Solid ground can become shifting sands

In the never ending search for more

Certainty can slip out the door 

So be careful, real careful, be careful what you ask for 

So be careful, real careful, be careful what you ask for 

Refrain

Be careful what you ask for

Sometimes when dreams come true

Behind that door you discover more

Heartache awaiting you

Be careful what you ask for

You may get what you wish

and discover fate has in store

an unexpected twist

So be careful, real careful, be careful what you ask for 

So be careful, real careful, be careful what you ask for
