Go On By    (1955)

No-no-no-no, don't you do it
Go on by, go on by

When you hear somebody fussing, don't you dare say a word
Go on by, go on by
If you hear some evil gossip, don't repeat a word you heard
Go on by, (that's it) go on by

No-no-no-no, don't you do it, go on by
Temptation leads to trouble and will make you cry
Let conscience be your guide, don't do things you'll have to hide
But do the thing that's right and go on by

When you get that urge to gamble and the Devil says come inside
Go on by, boys, go on by
Cause he's got that deck marked and he's carrying loaded dice
Go on by, boys, go on by

No-no-no-no, don't you do it, go on by
Temptation leads to trouble and will make you cry
Let conscience be your guide, don't do things you'll have to hide
But do the thing that's right and go on by

When you hear those glasses tinkling and your mouth is kinda dry
Go on by, go on by
That stuff makes you see double, it don't show the other side
Go on by, (that's it boys), go on by (go a-running)

No-no-no-no, don't you do it, go on by
Temptation leads to trouble and will make you cry
Let conscience be your guide, don't do things you'll have to hide
But do the thing that's right and go on by

No-no-no-no, don't you do it, go on by
Temptation leads to trouble and will make you cry
Let conscience be your guide, don't do things you'll have to hide
But do the thing that's right and go on by
