Lyrics Don't Tell Me (I Know) - Steve Forbert

Don't Tell Me (I Know)

It’s always hurry up and wait, with your hands tied
Don’t tell me, I know
Got ya standin' at the gate, on the outside
Don’t tell me, I know
I know the feelin’s been the same with me
I know it’s always moving slow…
I know you’re, you’re fed up as a man can be
I know, I know, I know…
So they’ve learn’d ya how to crawl on your bruised knees
Don’t tell me, I know
Got ya back against the wall in their deep freeze
Don’t tell me, I know
I know the feelin’s been the same with me
I know it’s always moving slow…
I know you’re, you’re fed up as a man can be
I know, I know, I know…
Alright…
Hey
I saw they’re grindin' up your dreams in their gristmill
Don’t tell me, I know
No it isn’t what it seem’d, it’s a, a-hard pill
But don’t tell me, I know
I know the feelin’s been the same with me
I know it’s always moving slow…
I know you’re, you’re fed up as a man can be
I know, I know, I know…
I know, I know, I know… say yeah
I know an' I know an' I know… say I know
I know, I know, I know…
Um, uh
Oh, yeah
