I'm not out of danger
So, lightly I tread
A little less pleading
And I might be dead
The scars on my pride
Heal slow I'm afraid
I'm not out of danger
It's just been delayed

The battle's still going
There's more that's at stake
A little more grievous
Than asking her weight
I don't know what leads us
To ask women why
But last time I did, she
Gave me a black eye

She don't need a reason
Throw logic away
Trust me, don't quote her
Live longer that way
No matter the weather
Don't rag on her hair
If she sees you lookin'
You'd better not stare

I'm not out of danger
I'm still in the red
A little more joking
And I'd wind up dead
The hair in her eyes and
Remarks that I made
Were such that true strangers
See through my charade

If she ever reads this
(I'll) be dead I'm afraid
