Artist: The Kingston Trio
Song: if you don't look around
They told me doncha go down to that city
Don't you go down to that city, I say
For there's trouble there for sure and it's no concern of yours
And it's all I have to hear them people say
If you don't look around
You won't see my a-goin', see me a-goin' that way
If you don't look around
You'll have no way of knowin', I don't think you even know what I say
And I saw children just walkin' 'long and singin'
When a voice from behind me rang through
Then I saw an ugly man with a mad dog in his hand
He said, "Stand right there, I'll turn him loose on you"
If you don't look around
You won't see my a-goin', see me a-goin' that way
If you don't look around
You'll have no way of knowin', I don't think you even know what I say
So don't tell me there ain't no time for singin'
'Cause I don't need no empty words from you
If they're sayin', who ain't free then they're sayin' it right to me
So, go back home, I'll wake you when we're through
If you don't look around
You won't see my a-goin', see me a-goin' that way
If you don't look around
You'll have no way of knowin', I don't think you even know what I say
