Don't Say A Word Lyrics

My mama told me when I was a child
Son, you've gotta keep a hold of your tongue
And if you don't have anything nice to say, my child
Well, don't say anything at all

'Cause every single thing that comes out of your mouth
Someone's listening
Taking as the truth every word that comes out
So don't, don't, don't, don't say a word

My father told me people see a preacher preach
And assume that the words are the Lord's
So before you spout out your most recent thoughts
Just remember who you're speaking for
Or don't say anything at all

'Cause every single thing that comes out of your mouth
Someone's listening
Taking as the truth every word that comes out

So don't, don't, don't, don't say a word

The word was made flesh and He dwelt among men
There's a truth deeper than our opinion
With a message of life for the dead
And who will tell them?

'Cause every single thing that comes out of your mouth
Someone's listening
Taking as the truth every word that comes out
So don't, so don't

'Cause every single thing that comes out of your mouth
Someone, someone
Is taking as the truth every word that comes out
Don't, don't, don't
Don't say a word

My mama told me when I was a child
Son, you've gotta keep a hold of your tongue
And if you don't have anything nice to say, my child
