"Careful Man" lyrics

"Careful Man"

I don't gamble I don't fight
I don't be hangin' around in them bars at night
Yes I used to be a fighter but now I'm a wiser man

I don't drink much I don't smoke
I don't be hardly messin' around with no dope
Yeah I used to be a problem but now I am a careful man

But if you used to want to see a commotion
You shoulda seen the man that I used to be
I was trouble in perpetual motion
Trouble with a capital T

Stayin' out late havin' fun
And shot off every single shot in my gun
Yes I used to be a lover but now I am an older man

But if you used to want to see a commotion...

Stayin' out late havin' fun
And shot off every single shot in my gun
Yes I used to be a terror but now I am a tired man
hmm hmm hmm
