Don’t Do as I Do (Do as I Say)

Well, I've been tempted And I've been tried I made daddy proud And watched momma as she cried They both did their best But I went astray Don't do as I do, son Do as I say Don't do as I do Do as I say I've been on the right path And I've gone the wrong way I've been through the devil's wrath And I've felt God's grace Don't do as I do, son Do as I say I've learned things I thought I knew Disappointed More than a few I've lived wrong But I'm better today Don't do as I do Do as I say Don't do as I do Do as I say I've been on the right path And gone the wrong way I've been through the devil's wrath And I've felt God's grace Don't do as I do Do as I say I've been through the devil's wrath And I've felt God's grace Don't do as I do Do as I say
