Don't Tell Me

(Jack Kennedy)
Don’t Tell Me (I’m Lying Again)

Don’t tell me, don’t tell me
I’m lying again
Don’t tell me, don’t tell me
Where did this all begin?
I hate to be evasive
I know that it’s a sin
Don’t tell me, don’t tell me
I’m lying again.

Don’t tell me, don’t tell me
I have a cheatin’ heart
Don’t tell me, don’t tell me
How did this ever start?
Ever since we’ve been together
My heart’s been torn apart
Don’t tell me, don’t tell me
I have a cheatin’ heart.

There’s a part of me that never listens
Another part of me that doesn’t hear
There’s a part of me that doesn’t get it
And another part that gets it very clear.

Don’t tell me, don’t tell me
I never treat you right
Don’t tell me, don’t tell me
don’t want another fight
You’ve rubbed my nose right into it
And now I see the light
Don’t tell me, don’t tell me
I never treat you right.

There’s a part of me that never listens
Another part of me that doesn’t hear
There’s a part of me that doesn’t get it
And another part that gets it very clear.
