Artist/Band: Trisha Yearwood
Lyrics for Song: That Ain't the Way I Heard It
Lyrics for Album: Where Your Road Leads [MCA] [1998]



(Jamie O'Hara)



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 9

Down by the river bend

But this town has ears and this town has eyes

And a whole lot of so called friends

Oooh that ain't the way I heard it.

Oooh 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 got nothin' to hide

Oooh that ain't the way I heard it.

Oooh 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 that old desire.



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 9

Down by the river bend

But this town has ears and this town has eyes

And a whole lot of so called friends

Oooh that ain't the way I heard it.

Oooh that ain't the way I heard it...
