Stop, Look & Listen Songtext
von Patsy Cline

Well I know a cool cat from way downtown
He′s been boppin' all around
In this old world he′s livin' fast
Someday I'm afraid he′s gonna run out of gas
So if you′re travelin' that way too
I′ll tell you friend what you better do

You gotta stop, look and listen
Hey, you don't know what you′re missin'
You gotta stop, look and listen
′Cause you might be missin' kissin'
If you′re travelin′ slow you'll go a long, long way

Now Farmer Jones he came to town
And saw that boppin′ all around
He learned to do it, there's no doubt
But I′m afraid someday he'll burn his motor out
So if you′re travelin' that way too
I'll tell you friend what you better do


You gotta stop, look and listen
Hey, you don′t know what you′re missin'
You gotta stop, look and listen
′Cause you might be missin' kissin′
If you're travelin′ slow you'll go a long, long way

First came the boogie then the bunny hop
Now the rumba, samba, then the bop
Well I don't know what′s a-comin′ next
But this old world's in a terrible fix
So if you′re travelin' that way too
I′ll tell you friend what you better do

You gotta stop, look and listen
Hey, you don't know what you′re missin'
You gotta stop, look and listen
'Cause you might be missin′ kissin′
If you're travelin′ slow you'll go a long, long way

You gotta stop, look and listen
You gotta stop, look and listen
You gotta stop, look and listen
You gotta stop
