| From hard luck tricks
|
| To trust fund freaks
|
| Bathroom stalls to penthouse suites
|
| I been around
|
| I been around
|
| From the bottom of the barrel
|
| To the cream of the crop
|
| They’ve picked me up
|
| And I’ve watched them drop
|
| I been around
|
| I been around
|
| I sang them all a song or two
|
| About simple things
|
| Still I feel I’m being used
|
| Isn’t a damn thing changed
|
| I’m an outlaw
|
| Bad Leroy Brown
|
| The only Cool Hand Luke left in this town
|
| I get my loving on the run
|
| I’m a low down
|
| Mister fly by night
|
| Baby slow down
|
| Let me show you right
|
| I sure don’t want to hurt no one
|
| So, don’t tell me you love me
|
| Don’t tell me you love, love me do
|
| Don’t tell me you love me
|
| Because love’s one thing that I cannot do
|
| And it’s the only thing that I can’t give to you
|
| From Hollywood hoes to backstage jive
|
| Jacked up trucks and Gulf Stream 5's
|
| I been around
|
| I been around
|
| From silly little girls who play them games
|
| To the rich and famous
|
| I won’t say no names
|
| I been around
|
| I been around
|
| You got to touch the stove to learn they say
|
| Get burnt and learn that way
|
| You better keep your feelings at bay
|
| Or honey you going to pay
|
| So, don’t tell me you love me |
