Don’t Say What You Won’t Do

Anthony Hamilton, Cedric Solomon

[Intro]
If you see me walking down the street
(If you see me walking)
And I start to cry
Don't walk on by (Don't walk on)
Don't walk on by (Don't walk)
Why don't you look me in my eye?
Look me in my eye, my eye, oh

Uh oh (I can't hold that man's hand 'cause he from another land)
Hey, uh (I can't love nobody else's baby 'cause I wanna be a man)
Oh, oh, oh (I can't fall down on my knees and ask for forgiveness and
Help my fellow man - be a stronger man)
Oh, oh, oh (White people, Black people, Jews, Muslims: YOU CAN, YOU CAN)

[Verse 1]
Ran with the rest of them
Hung with the best of them soldiers
Did a lot of thinking on
What most of them had told us
They say they can never ever
Give up their life for a stranger man
But oh, when it comes down to it
You don't know what's in the plan

[Pre-Chorus]
(If you should see me crying, crawling)
Reach out and grab my tear
(If you should see me dying, if I'm dying)
Don't you leave me standing here
(If you should hear me singing) The words of a troubled man
(Don't walk away) Don't walk by me like you don't understand

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh! (Don't say what you won't do)
Don't say what you won't do, no, no
(Don't say what you won't do)
When it all falls down and he's looking at you
(Don't say what you won't do) Don't say, don't say
(Don't say what you won't do) Hey, hey, oh

[Verse 2]
Now you've got your life all planned out
Walking by people looking for handouts
So far up on your high horse
That you can't even hear that boy screaming
(Please, help me, help me, I'm in need)
For these few bucks that you give to me
I can help save you and your family
(Oh, oh) Don't act like you don't see me standing here
(Oh, oh) With all my tears and all my fears
(Oh, oh) You can't even look in my eye, my eye, my, my
(Oh, oh) Don't pass me by, don't pass me by, hey

[Chorus]
(Don't say what you won't do)
(Don't say what you won't do)
Don't say it if you don't mean it, no, no, no
(Don't say what you won't do)
You can never tell the way that your life is gonna go, no, no, no, no
(Don't say what you won't do)
Don't say, don't say what you won't do
(Don't say what you won't do)
Don't tell me that you can't love me
(Don't say what you won't do)
I'm standing here with tears
(Don't say what you won't do)
'Cause I ran with the rest of them, hung with the best of them
(Don't say what you won't do)
And they learned to love

[Outro]
(Oh, oh) Hey, hey, hey, hey
(Oh, oh) Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord
(Oh, oh) Ooh
(Oh, oh, oh, oh) Ooh

Don't say what you won't do
Because you never know what's coming right up to you
Could be your very last moment
Gon' cry 'til my eyes are blue
Oh, don't say it, don't say it, don't say it
