If You Won't Tell on Me

Connie Smith · Born to Sing (Bear Family (Germany)) [2001]

(Dallas Frazier)



Ol' heart the way our true love has been doin'

Just rips and tears my pride right half in two

I know you're just as much ashamed as I am

So if you won't tell on me I won't tell on you.



Let's not breathe a word or they'll start saying

There they go the world's two greatest fools

Ol' heart there's not one doubt that we're both crazy

So if you won't tell on me I won't tell on you.

Ol' heart I hope that no one will discover

The foolish things that his love made us do

We'd prob'ly have to pack and leave the country

So if you won't tell on me I won't tell on you.



Let's not breathe a word or they'll start saying

There they go the world's two greatest fools

Ol' heart there's not one doubt that we're both crazy

So if you won't tell on me I won't tell on you.



No, if you won't tell on me I won't tell on you...
