Songtexte Red Flag - Live - Anne Wilson

We all, I wanna invite everybody to stand their feet
And let me ask you, where are my girls at tonight, Lexington?
We all, my mama taught me a whole lot of things growing up
But one thing she always taught me was what to look for and what not to look for in a guy
And this next song perfectly describes what it means to not settled and to wait for God's best, so
Girls, help me sing this if you know it
This is Red Flag, here we go

Don't sell yourself short, girl
He's gotta love you, but he's gotta love Jesus just a little more, girl
It's worth waitin' for, girl
Where'd he come from?
Is he big, city pretty, or sweatin' for a dollar 'til the day's done?
Is hard work what he runs from

And at the end of the day, my mama said
Some flags are green and some flags are red

He's a no-go if he don't go to church
Better slow down if he ain't down to earth
And if he don't go huntin' and don't go fishin'
You might as well throw him back
And if he don't R-E-S-P-E-C-T
The stars and the stripes in the land of the free
Better run away fast 'cause a boy like that
Is a walkin', talkin', wavin' red flag

Red flag
Girl, he's a red flag
Oh (red flag)

It does it make sense, girl?
Do you see him jumpin' off a fence
And buyin' you a white picket fence world?
Or just got you for rent, girl?

He's a no-go if he don't go to church
Better slow down if he ain't down to earth
If he don't go huntin' and don't go fishin'
You might as well throw him back
And if he don't R-E-S-P-E-C-T
The stars and the stripes in the land of the free
Better run away fast 'cause a boy like that
Is a walkin', talkin', wavin' red flag

Red flag
Oh, he's a red flag
Girl, he's a red flag

Some red flags don't know the golden rule
And some red flags don't own a pair of boots

He's a no-go if he don't go to church
Better slow down if he ain't down to earth
If he don't go huntin' and don't go fishin'
You might as well throw him back
If he don't R-E-S-P-E-C-T
The stars and the stripes in the land of the free
Better run away fast 'cause a boy like that
Is a walkin', talkin', wavin' red flag

(Red flag)
Stay away from a (red flag)
Mama warned you (red flag)
Don't you know he's a
