Dolly Parton - Company You Keep
Yes you're known by the company you keep
You say you're doing nothing wrong and I don't believe you are
I'm only tryin' to help you sis before you go too far
Cause I think you're an angel but folks think that you're cheap
Cause you're known by the company you keep
Please listen to your big sister I feel I know what's best for you
I feel that I must warn you that's the least that I can do
I'm not accusing you of anything I know it's fun you seek
But you're known by the company you keep
The company you keep keeps you out too long
Mom and dad don't go to sleep until you get home
Sis you're gettin' in too deep you'd better look before you leap
Cause you're known by the company you keep
Sis you're gettin' in too deep the road of life is steep
And you're known by the company you keep
