Beating Around The Bush

Smiling face and loving eyes But you keep on telling me all those lies How do you expect me to believe Honey I ain't on my knees Baby I got my eye on you 'Cause you do all the things they want you to Stop your crying and dry your tears I ain't that wet behind the ears You can throw me left And you can throw me right But where was you last night Beating around the bush Wish I knew what's on your mind Why you're being so unkind Remember those nights you spent alone Talking on the telephone Thoughts of you go through my brain You told me that you felt the same You said that you love me too You told me he was out with you I was talkin' birds And you was talkin' bees Oh was he down upon his knees Beating around the bush You're the meanest woman I've ever known Sticks and stones won't break my bones I know what you're looking for You ate your cake, you want some more I'm gonna give you just a one more chance Try to save our romance That is the thing I'm gonna do The rest is up to you You can chew it up And you can spit it out Let it all hang out Beating around the bush
