Pretend You Just Don't Know Me

(Billy Walker)



The next time that you see me

Please don't even speak

I don't even want you walkin'

Down the same side of the street.



That's what she said the day she left

And walked away from me

Pretend you just don't know me

If we ever chance to meet.



But she knows I couldn't

'Cause she takes along my heart

And if we ever meet again

I'll beg for another start.



I didn't mean to cheat on her

But I cheated just the same

To pretend I just don't know her if

I'm forgetting my own name.
