Dont Gild the Lily, Lily |
| Listen to me, Lil' |
| And to what I’ve got to tell ya |
| I’ve been through the mill |
| And I don’t want to sell ya |
| But the game of love |
| Is hard to understand |
| So here’s some good advice |
| Never overplay your hand |
| Don’t gild the lily, Lily |
| Don’t let him know he’s your only thrill |
| Even though he knocks ya silly |
| When he looks at you with his eyes of blue |
| Don’t gild the lily, Lily |
| Don’t overdo on the sweet talk too |
| If you act a little chilly |
| He’ll be hangin' round warming up to you |
| Oh Lil', I know what I say |
| Cause I’ve been through the mill |
| So don’t gild the lily, Lil' |
| Oh Lil', I know what I say |
| Cause I’ve been through the mill |
| So don’t gild the lily, Lil' |
| Don’t gild the lily, Lily |
| Don’t let him know he’s your only thrill |
| Even though he knocks ya silly |
| When he looks at you with his eyes of blue |
| Oh Lil', I know what I say |
| Cause I’ve been through the mill |
| So don’t gild the lily, Lil' |
| Oh Lil', I know what I say |
| Cause I’ve been through the mill |
| So don’t gild the lily, Lil' |
