Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Farther on up the road
Someone's gonna hurt you like you hurt me
Farther on up the road
Someone's gonna hurt you like you hurt me
Farther on up the road
Baby you just wait and see
[Verse 2]
You've got to reap just what you sew
That old saying is true
You've got to reap just what you sew
That old saying is true
Like you mistreat someone
Someone's gonna mistreat you
[Verse 3]
Now you're laughing pretty baby
Someday you're gonna be crying
Now you're laughing pretty baby
Some, someday you gonna be crying
Farther on up the road
You find out I wasn't lying
[Verse 4]
Yeah, baby
Farther on up the road, baby
You'll find out I wasn't lying
[Verse 5]
Farther on up the road
When you're all alone and blue
Farther on up the road
When you're all alone and blue
You gonna ask me to take you back baby
But I'll have somebody new
[Verse 6]
Baby
Farther on up the road
Baby
Farther on up the road
You'll get yours
