Only Me and My Hairdresser Know

Kitty Wells · Love Makes the World Go Around [1967]

(Arthur Thomas)



Everybody says I always look so happy

They always tell me you're so good for me

They never seem to worry that I try to hide

'Cause I keep it covered up so they can't see.



It's funny what a little hairdye can do

It can take the years right off of you

But there's one thing that it can't take away

And that's these heartaches that haunt me night and day.



My hairdresser covers up the grey

And I paint on a good old smile to go out everyday

I've kept the hurt concealed the real me never shows

Only me and my hairdresser know.

Appearances can often be decieving

And even though the truth one can hide

But underneath it all the truth is hurting

And as long as I've got make up I've got cry.



My hairdresser covers up the grey

And I paint on a good old smile to go out everyday

I've kept the hurt concealed the real me never shows

Only me and my hairdresser know.



Only me and my hairdresser know...
