Jet Boy Blue

You steal and you think that it's right

Like a thief in the night

Ah, oh yeah

I'll tell you it's true

You come around with your stories to tell

I don't hold no int'rest

But I let you go

I know you've fallen under his spell

Don't let him kill you

He'll only fill you with lies

You're a fool and you know it

Done your best not to show it

But it's all over

You're through

Jet Boy Blue

He'll only take you for a ride

Only cost you your pride

Jet Boy Blue

Stop, stop while you're still ahead

You've got a lot to learn

You're still so young

Listen to what your mama said

Try to tell you go to hell

You're just a kid

Don't take no advice, you never think twice

Close the door

Jump in, don't mention what you did

Stop, stop while you're still ahead

You've got a lot to learn

You're still so young

Listen to what your mama said

You're a fool and you know it

Done your best not to show it

But it's all over

You're through

Jet Boy Blue

He'll only take you for a ride

Only cost you your pride

Jet Boy Blue

Stop, stop while you're still ahead

You've got a lot to learn

You're still so young

Listen to what your mama said

Jet Boy Blue

You steal and you think that it's right

Like a thief in the night

Wo, Jet, Jet, Jet, Jet Boy Blue

Jet Boy Blue

Jet Boy Blue

Jet Boy Blue

Jet Boy Blue

Jet Boy Blue

Jet Boy Blue

Jet Boy Blue ...
