WORTH LISTENING TO

I could always tell when grandma was a little ticked off at me
Her frown was ten times worse than a branch from a hickory tree
And when it comes to men grandma had some rare insight
Got’ta sort through a lot’ta Teflon to find a shinin’ armor knight

          Sometimes we go too fast in life, we rarely go too slow
          We’re not born with the answers, we learn as we go
          Many are the men who pretend to understand what’s true
          When you find one who admits he don’t, he’s one worth listenin’ to

Somehow as I grew older I got to know more than a few
Of the men grandma warned me not to pay any mind to
Only one man really understands, it’s wrote down in the book
So before you fall for one too quick best take a careful look

          Sometimes we go too fast in life, we rarely go too slow
          We’re not born with the answers, we learn as we go
          Many are the men who pretend to understand what’s true
          When you find one who admits he don’t, he’s one worth listenin’ to

It’s hard to know the score for sure even if our head’s on straight
And often best to test desire’s water ‘fore we fall in and it’s too late

          Sometimes we go too fast in life, we rarely go too slow
          We’re not born with the answers, we learn as we go
          Many are the men who pretend to understand what’s true
          When you find one who admits he don’t, he’s one worth listenin’ to
         
          You ain’t likely to find a man that knows any more than you
          An’ when you find one who admits he don’t, he’s one worth listenin’ to
          Worth listenin’ to, worth listenin’ to
