TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF
Henry Hoffman/Gary Klein

Recorded Gordon Lightfoot 1962


Look both ways before you cross the street
Don't run up and down the stairs
Don't talk to strangers that you may meet
Don't stand on any rocking chairs.

Take care of yourself, while I'm away
Darling don't worry I'll be okay
Just take care of yourself and please be true
When I come home, I'll take care of you.

Don't run around, go to sleep too late
Be as good as you can be
And if some fellow asks you for a date
Just tell him you belong to me.

Take care of yourself, while I'm away
Darling don't worry I'll  be okay
Just take care of yourself and please be true
When I come home, I'll take care of you.
