This 1’s for the future that past you by 
There’s 2 many problems for you and I 
And 3’s for the money you’ll steal tonight 
You 4got your family 4got your pride 

Why won’t you stay 
Why won’t you pray 

You’ve lost to temptation, no innocence 
I drown in my sorrow and silence 
It’s you or it’s them, so simple then 
Just where are you going, where have you been… 

Why won’t you stay 
Why won’t you… 

Walk on down, stand your ground 
Little known less understood 
Little red [bad word]  don’t [bad word] with wolves 

There’s no judge and jury only house arrest 
I’ll show you some mercy, a pound of flesh 
There’s no need to hurry baby, no need to shout 
Why don’t you stay ‘til the morning and we can work it out 

Why won’t you stay 
Why won’t you… 

Walk on down, stand your ground 
Out there is a world that keeps spinning around 
Now baby, 

Walk on down, stand your ground 
Little known less understood 
Little red [bad word]  don’t [bad word] with wolves
