| After you came in late last night,
|
| You said you’d been alone,
|
| Just needed some room to clear your mind,
|
| A little time away from home.
|
| Told me you were down on highway nine,
|
| Down by the river bend.
|
| But this town has ears and this town has eyes,
|
| And a whole lot of so called friends.
|
| And ooh, ooh, that ain’t the way I heard it.
|
| Ooh, ooh, that ain’t the way I heard it.
|
| Don’t you think I wanna trust every word you say?
|
| Don’t you think I wanna look in your eyes?
|
| And feel suspicion slip away,
|
| When you say you’ve got nothin’to hide.
|
| But ooh, ooh, that ain’t the way I heard it.
|
| Ooh, ooh, that ain’t the way I heard it.
|
| Throw me out a lifeline, baby,
|
| Offer me a grain of truth.
|
| Treat me with a little bit of dignity,
|
| I think I deserve that much from you.
|
| Gimme one reason for stayin’cool,
|
| Tell me they’re no good liars.
|
| Don’t make me play your pathetic fool, baby,
|
| Show me the old desire.
|
| Ooh, ooh, that ain’t the way I heard it Ooh, ooh, that ain’t the way I heard it.
