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.
