Old Sayings

Now old sayings give you lots of philosophy Like if you lie down with dogs you'll get up with flees Hear when I say old sayings should make you think You take horse to water but you can't make him drink You wake up the cat but let sleeping dogs lie If you spill the milk the thing not to do is cry Just give a listen and hear what old sayings say Don't spend all ya money save some for a rainy day Cause if you watch the pot the food will never done A rock at sea bottom never feel hot sun Continue to listen cause the old sayings are true You'll know what the monkey see the monkey will do A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush A car with not battery is useless to push Take heed from old sayings cause old sayings never lie They'll never be friends the spider and the fly Don't go in business with friends and family What you don't know won't hurt it's clear to see But beware and listen to what old sayings say When the cat is away you know the rat will play Don't throw away old bucket I say to you Til you're sure the new one will hold water too And believe old sayings you'll soon know what in mean The new broom look good but the old one always sweep clean Now in conclusion this I say to you If you're head is hard you won't learn a thing or two So take time and listen listen now to me It's better to be safe than to be sorry You see We're talkin bout them old people And I know y'all ga say - - Oh the young people ga say "Oh them old people dey een know what they talkin bout" Well let me tell ya Them old people know what they was talkin bout Like don't spit in the wind cause it ga blow back in ya face Being poor may be a setback not a disgrace Blow ya nose where you catch ya cold And just because it glitters don't mean it's gold Pearly white teeth don't mean true smile And if ya spare the rod you spoil the child And we all know what gern on now We been sparing the road too long! So listen Them old people know what they was talkin bout Trust me Even though they were lookin for they pipe And it was right in they mouth They know what they was talkin bout Trust me Yes indeed Lawd have mercy Uh huh
