"Don't Break the Code" Sangtekst

The valley was green and the sun was shining bright
He asked her if she'd like to go for a ride
They drove out to the river in the cool of trees
She reached out and gave his hand a squeeze

Then suddenly, they were in each other's arms
The passion they felt was a four-alarm
He loved her once, he loved her twice
But he should have taken a friend's advice

Don't mess around with another man's wife
Step outta line, you could lose your life
Stay on the straight and narrow road
Don't break the code
Oh no

They drove back home as the sun went down
And all the workers were headed outta town
Rushing to suppers and family nests
Relief from the heat and time to rest

But the lovers grow slowly reluctant to part
In an afternoon, they'd given their hearts
She twisted her golden wedding ring
As they listened to the crickets sing

Don't mess around with another man's wife
Step outta line, you could lose your life
Stay on the straight and narrow road
Don't break the code
Don't break the code

The gun was sprayed with a diamond bright shine
He polished it when he came home from the mine
He said, "I can protect and keep what's mine"
A believer in Jesus and the ties that bind

When he found them in bed, he went out of his mind
He shot them both though the heart three times
The jury found only insanity
So his head stayed in prison while his body went free

Don't mess around with another man's wife
Step outta line, you could lose your life
Stay on the straight and narrow road, oh no
Don't mess around with another man's wife
Step outta line, you could lose your life
Stay on the straight and narrow road
Don't break the code
Don't break the code
Ooh, no

Don't break the code
Don't break the code
Don't break the code
Don't break the code
Don't break the code
Ooh, no
Don't break the code
Don't break the code
Don't break the code
Don't break the code
Oh no
Don't break the code
