Text: Brenda Lee. Recordings Collection (1955-1970) Part 5. Love And Learn.

(B.Montgomery / E.Sinks)

Love and learn about the birds and bees
And the flowers of the mystery
And if you really want to give yourself a blue
Love and learn about the blues
The rocky road is pretty hard to take,
But you don't know nothing till your heart breaks
If you want to know how much you've got to lose,
Love and learn about the blues

Love is a game where your life gets spoken.
But the game gets rough when your heart get broken
You'll say at home sitting all alone
Waiting for the doorbell or the telephone

Then you'll know about what everyone must learn,
If you play around with love your will sure to get burned
So when you go to pick a guy be careful
Who you choose or you'll love and learn about the blues
