(A. Young M. Young B. Johnson)

Don't talk to strangers, keep away from the danger

Don't talk to strangers who smile

Keep away from the danger all the time, you just keep away

Just keep away



Red lights are flashing, there's been a misunderstanding

I'm Bruised and broke and bandaged

Through drinking all that brandy

I was, under the table but I came back for more

Gotta hit that bottle but my head hit the floor



Danger, danger, don't talk to strangers

Stranger, danger, don't you talk

Danger, danger, don't talk to strangers

Danger, danger, don't talk keep away



Red lights still flashing

People all still dancing in my head

I've done with thinking, about what to do

Another bout of drinking

Just one before I'm through

I was just raising hell I wasn't doing no harm

The cops could not appreciate my natural charm



I'm a

Danger, danger, don't talk to strangers

Stranger, danger, don't you talk, don't talk

Danger, danger, don't talk to strangers

Danger, danger, don't talk keep away



Don't talk to strangers



Danger, danger, don't talk to strangers

Stranger, danger, don't you talk, don't talk

Danger, danger , don't talk to strangers

Danger, danger , don't talk keep away

Danger, danger, don't talk to strangers

Stranger, danger, don't you talk, don't you talk

Danger, danger, don't talk to strangers

Danger, danger



Don't you go talking to no stranger in this town
