[Verse 1] I raised you with my hands And a prayer in my chest Gave you my last dime And my very best Now you bite the hand That kept you warm at night You chose that wrong road And you swear it's right [Pre-Chorus] Don't get me wrong I love my kids But some things cut Too deep to forgive [Chorus] You're playin' with fire Playin' with fire Little girl, watch your mouth You're playin' with fire The rooster's comin' home You're playin' with fire (playing with fire) [Verse 2] I watched my mama cry And I still feel that stain One lie can break a home Like a hard summer rain You can't take back words Once they leave your lips Can't bring her back With a tearful wish [Pre-Chorus] Go read your Bible Then read it again You can't undo What you've done to kin [Chorus] You're playin' with fire Playin' with fire Little girl, watch your mouth You're playin' with fire The rooster's comin' home You're playin' with fire (playing with fire) [Bridge] I won't do what he did I won't carry that shame But I won't stand here And take the blame Love can hurt like hell When pride gets high One day you'll know Why mama cried [Chorus] You're playin' with fire Playin' with fire Little girl, watch your mouth You're playin' with fire The rooster's comin' home You're playin' with fire (playing with fire) [Outro] Love my kids with all my heart But the truth don't bend What you sow in blood Comes back in the end
