If I Don’t Get Involved

[Intro]
My Lord, oh
My Lord, listen

[Chorus]
If I don't get involved
I sure can't get hurt
That's why I'm staying
Away from you
'Cause I know, yes, I know
You a little heart breaker
If you get a chance
You'll break my whole heart too

[Verse]
If I don't play the game
I sure can't lose
That's why I'm staying
In the safety zone
Some folks say that I'm a fool
Nutty as a fruit cake
But I got sense enough
To leave you alone

[Post-Chorus]
How many hearts have you broken?
Oh, I guess you’ve lost count long time ago
Of all of the men, the men you’ve hurt
Why do somе of those fools
Keep running back for more? Oh, Lord

[Chorus]
If I don't get involvеd
I sure can't get hurt
And nothing make
Real good sense to you
I know, yes, I know
You a little heart breaker
If you get a chance, you know
You'll break my whole heart too

[Post-Chorus]
How many hearts have you broken?
I know you’ve lost count a long time ago
Of all of the men, all the men you’ve hurt
Why do some of those fools
Keep running back for more? Oh, Lord

[Chorus]
If I don't get involved
I sure can't lose
And nothing make
Real good sense to you
I know, yes, I know
You a little heart breaker
If you get a chance, you know
You'll break my whole heart too

[Outro]
Shall I find the right woman for me?
You know what, brother? (Ha)
I just rather just stay free
And I'm not gonna yield
To no temptation, no, no
I'm not going for that
I'm not gonna walk in that chimney trap
I'm not gonna let you do this to me
Like you did the other man
I wanted always, I wanted always
To be your friend
I’d love to be your lover
I don't wanna get involved
No Lord, oh Lord
