Don’t Burn No Bridges Lyrics

Walking the streets on a cold, cold night
In the middle of December
When last did I eat, I never could remember
The wind was hollerin′ through my clothes
And there was ice upon my feet
I said I just couldn't go another further
I said I got to get some sleep

Now don′t burn no bridges, well, along the way
Oh, you just might need
To come back this way someday
People, don't burn no bridges along the way
You just might need
To come back this way someday

Just like good fortune found you
You better share your little good luck
And if you're wrong, admit, why pass the buck?
Now to get ahead in life, son
Don′t you sell your best friends out
′Cause you just might have to pass back this way
And eat the words that came out of your mouth

Now don't burn no bridges, well, along the way
You just might need
To come back this way someday
People, don′t burn no bridges, ha, along the way
You just might need
To come back this way someday

Listen, na na na na (Woo, woo, woo-woo)
Now now now now now (Woo, woo, woo-woo)
Ah

Oh, be careful of the people that you're walkin′ on
My son, maybe tomorrow they might be your steppin' stone

Now I′m walking the streets on a cold, cold night
In the middle of December
When last did I eat, I never could remember
The wind was hollerin' through my clothes
There was ice upon my feet
I said I just couldn't go another further
Hey, I had to get some sleep

Now don′t burn no bridges along the way
You just might need
To come back this way someday
People, don′t burn no bridges along the way
You just might need
To come back this way someday
