I knew a guy in the Orleans
He used to teach me some lines
One of them stayed in my lonely mind
Until i've found what it means

It says hey buddy, dont ever play with fire, fire will burn you before you know
Before you know that you've gone too far, Before you feel that you're hurt

I knew that guy in the Orleans
That guy who once had a wife
She brokes his heart maybe 2-3 times
And he came up with this line

That says hey buddy, dont ever play with fire, fire will burn you before you know
Before you know that you've gone too far, Before you feel that you're hurt

I knew a guy in the Orleans
He used to work very hard
To raise his kids and keep forgetting 
The line that has changed my mind

And It says hey buddy, dont ever play with fire, fire will burn you before you know
Before you know that you've gone too far, Before you feel that you're hurt

And tell me why, why you keep coming back,
Why everytime you've got burn
Love is a trap that you can't break up
Until you follow this line

That says hey buddy, dont ever play with fire, fire will burn you before you know,
Before you know that you've gone too far, Before You feel that you're hurt

Oh that says Hey buddy don't ever play with fire no
Don't ever play with fire no no no no no..
