I'd Rather Hurt Myself |
Rather hurt, hurt myselfThan to hurt you |
All the talkThat’s going around townAbout me and Mary AnnIt’s getting you down |
down downAnd I’m aware of all your friendsCalling you a foolTrying to show you |
the placeTo where I’m using you you you |
But after all these yearsWe’ve been togetherI would think by nowYou would know |
me betterI’d rather hurt myselfThan to hurt you |
Uhhh, Uhhh, Uhhh, Uhhh |
Now I can understandYou being all upsetThe whole towns laughing, |
huhAnd talking behind your backBut I shouldn’t have to remind youHow low down |
people areThey see us doing goodWhat better way to tear us apart |
But just rememberBefore you walk out the doorThe words I told youTwelve long |
years agoI’d rather hurt myselfThan to hurt you, babyI don’t want to hurt you |
no no no noI’d rather hurt myselfThan to hurt you, babyI’d rather hurt |
myselfThan to hurt youI don’t want to hurt you |
Because you meanSo much to me baby, babyI’ll give you all I gotIf you want it |
girlI’d rather hurt myselfHurt myselfHurt myselfIf I ever hurt you baby, oh, ho, |
hoI’d throw myselfIn the lions denThan let a day go byThat you don’t smile |
again |
Hurt myselfHurt myself |
