Mama used to tell me tales bout a part of town
Where people cry the blues most everyday
She said don't go down there boy you know love'll cut you down
And you ain't yet a man hear what I say
She said listen to me son it's so
Let me tell you I been down there and I know
That on love street they've got signs that say watch for falling victims
Dreams get run down in the night Lord and yours might be the next one
Down where lies'll cut you deep and goodbyes are loaded guns
You can take one through the heart another casualty of love
But still I had to find out just how a love would feel
I got tangled in the arms of one gone bad
Now I sit and wait and wonder as I cry myself to sleep
Why I couldn't heed what my mama said
Now here every word rings clear and true
Now I come to realize what love can do
That on love street they've got signs...
