Lyrics for Good Advices
When you greet a stranger, look at his shoes Keep your money in your shoes, put your trouble behind When you greet a stranger, look at her hands Keep your money in your hands, put your travel behind Who are you going to call for, what do you have to say Keep your hat on your head Home is a long way away At the end of the day, I'll forget your name I'd like it here if I could leave and see you from a long way away When you greet a stranger, look at his shoes Keep you memories in your shoes, put your travel behind Who are you going to call for, what do you have to say Keep your hat on your head Home is a long way away At the end of the day, when there are no friends When there are no lovers, who are you going to call for What do you have to change A familiar face, a foreign place, I'll forget your name I'd like it here if I could leave and see you from a long way away Who are you going to call for, what do you have to say Keep your hat on your head Home is a long way away
