Nazareth – Why Don't You Read The Book lyrics
Don't talk to the pilot
When he's flyin
Don't smile at the soldier
Hes on parade

Don't come creeping round, youll
Catch me cryin
No more talkin bout it
Its all been said

You drawn such a fine line baby
Learnin all the rules
Why don't ya read between them sometimes
You wont look such a fool

Why don't you read the book, why don't you read the book
Why don't you read the book, why don't you read the book

Why show all your aces
To the gambler
If he calls your hand
Youre gonna lose
Don't trust first impressions
Of a stranger
Private informations
Just tellin tales

* You draw such a fine line baby
Learnin all the rules
Why don't ya read between them sometimes
You wont look such a fool

** Why don't you read the book, why don't you read the book
Why don't you read the book, why don't you read the book

Repeat *

Repeat **
