Bobby "Blue" Bland — If I Dont Get Involved

[Intro] My Lord, oh My Lord, listen [Chorus] If I don't get involved I sure can't get hurt That's why I'm staying Away from you 'Cause I know, yes, I know You a little heart breaker If you get a chance You'll break my whole heart too [Verse] If I don't play the game I sure can't lose That's why I'm staying In the safety zone Some folks say that I'm a fool Nutty as a fruit cake But I got sense enough To leave you alone [Post-Chorus] How many hearts have you broken? Oh, I guess you’ve lost count long time ago Of all of the men, the men you’ve hurt Why do somе of those fools Keep running back for more? Oh, Lord [Chorus] If I don't get involvеd I sure can't get hurt And nothing make Real good sense to you I know, yes, I know You a little heart breaker If you get a chance, you know You'll break my whole heart too [Post-Chorus] How many hearts have you broken? I know you’ve lost count a long time ago Of all of the men, all the men you’ve hurt Why do some of those fools Keep running back for more? Oh, Lord [Chorus] If I don't get involved I sure can't lose And nothing make Real good sense to you I know, yes, I know You a little heart breaker If you get a chance, you know You'll break my whole heart too [Outro] Shall I find the right woman for me? You know what, brother? (Ha) I just rather just stay free And I'm not gonna yield To no temptation, no, no I'm not going for that I'm not gonna walk in that chimney trap I'm not gonna let you do this to me Like you did the other man I wanted always, I wanted always To be your friend I’d love to be your lover I don't wanna get involved No Lord, oh Lord
