Sooner or Later

John Anthony Nèmeth

Sooner or later you learn
Play with fire and you'll get burned
Sooner or later you learn
Every fool's gonna get their turn

You live your life on a wire
Walking rope just above the fire
Your candlelight is burning bright
Someday it won't burn at night

Livin' hard and lovin' fast
Someday that good luck won't last
You're breakin' many a hearts
Oh, now you're gone before they fall apart
And that's why I say

Sooner or later you learn
Play with fire and you'll get burned
Sooner or later you learn
Every fool will get their turn

Sooner or later you learn
Play with fire and you'll get burned
Sooner or later you learn
Every fool will get their turn

And your sin is true
Life will catch up with you
And livin' life wild and free
Ain't all that's it cracked up to be, oh yea

Friends that love you the most
Now they know you like to toast
And the ones you hold so dear
When you're down, they ain't never near
And that's why I say

Sooner or later you learn
Play with fire and you'll get burned
Sooner or later you learn
Every fool will get their turn
Sing it, yea

(Sooner or later you learn) Aw, sooner or later
Play with fire and you'll get burned
(Sooner or later you learn) Oh, yea
Every fool, every fool will get their turn

(Sooner or later you learn) Hey!
Play with fire and you'll get burned
(Sooner or later you learn) Oh
Every fool, oh every fool,
Every fool like me will get his turn
