Now He Tells Me lyrics

[Verse 1]
I crossed an intersection
Truck came in my direction
Crash! Then the driver said
"Look out, can't you see that light is red!"

[Chorus 1]
Now he tells me
Now he tells me
People wait until it's much too late
Now he tells me

[Verse 2]
Went to a swimmin' school
Jumped in the swimmin' pool
Woke, heard the doctor say
"They don't fill the pool 'til the middle of May!"

[Chorus 2]
Now he tells me
Now he tells me
People wait until it's much too late
Now he tells me

[Bridge]
Seems I'm the kind who people warn
After things have gone too far
Friday the 13th, I was born
Under an unlucky star
[Verse 3]
Went to a gypsy fella
Who was a fortune teller
He looked at me forlorn
And said, "Brother, you never should'a been born."

[Chorus 3]
Now he tells me
Now he tells me
People wait until it's much too late
Now he tells me

[Outro]
Well, I thought all my troubles would be over
If I found a four-leaf clover
And I did
Then a farmer yelled at me and said I was on a poison ivy bed

Now he tells me
