Always check the door before you lay down Keep a glass of water by the bed A dose of local honey Will keep your nose from runnin' Little things like that she's always said Never back up farther than you have to Pray for those that don't have a prayer Honey, trust yourself You better love yourself 'Cause 'til you do, you ain't no good For anybody else And, honey, boys are dumb But you gonna find your one Love him hard and bless your heart You'll need someone to listen That's why I leave a light on in the kitchen Pancakes just taste better after midnight When you make friends, always be color blind Your freckles make you pretty There's more to life than bein' skinny When you feel fat, it's mostly in your mind So, honey, trust yourself You better love yourself 'Cause 'til you do, you ain't no good To anybody else And, honey, boys are dumb But you gonna find your one Love him hard and bless your heart You'll need someone to listen And that's why I leave a light on in the kitchen (Ooh, ooh) Well, honey, trust yourself Laugh at yourself If somethin' tries to hold you back Get up and give it hell And for heaven's sake Always have a place That you can do some cryin' and some bitchin' And always leave a light on in the kitchen
