True Love

There's two kinds of people that i just can't stand
An evil hearted woman and a lyin' man
But don't you lie to me, don't you lie to me
Because it makes me feel like it's as evil as i can be
Told me that you loved me a long time ago
The woman that you had, you don't want her no more
But don't you lie to me, don't you lie to me
Because it makes me feel like it's as evil as a woman can be

You told me that you loved me a long time ago
The woman that you had, you don't want her no more
But don't you lie to me, don't you lie to me
Because it makes me feel like it's as evil as a woman can be

Hey, don't you lie to me
Don't you lie to me
No, no, don't you lie to me
Don't you lie to me
Because it makes me feel like it's as evil as a woman can be
Don't you lie to me
Don't you lie to me baby - no
Don't you lie to me
No - don't you lie to me

Evening, every night you come and you find me
And you always remind me, that my baby's gone
Evening, you got me deeper in your power
Every minute seems like an hour
Now that my baby's gone
Shadows fall upon the wall
That's the time i miss your kiss most of all
Even though i try, how can i go on
Oh evening, let me sleep 'til the glow of dawn is breaking
I don't care if i don't awaken
Since my baby's gone

Shadows fall upon the wall
That's the time i miss your kiss most of all
Even though i try, how can i go on
Evening, let me sleep 'til the glow of dawn is breaking
I don't care if i don't awaken
Since my baby's gone

Well there used to be a time when a man was a king
To work for a man was a woman's only dream
Everything he did was perfectly alright
He didn't have to worry about fussin' and fightin'
It don't happen no more
That was a long time ago
It's a pitiful shame
How the world has changed

There used to be a time when a woman couldn't smoke
There used to be a time when a woman couldn't vote
She used to stay at home while the man went out to play
She was satisfied with life any old way

It don't happen no more
That was a long time ago
It's a pitiful shame
How the world has changed
Well, well

There used to be a time when a woman couldn't cook
There used to be a time she didn't worry about her looks
She used to sip on sassafrass, she didn't even drink
She didn't try to tell her man how to think

It don't happen no more
That was a long time ago
It's a pitiful shame
How the world has changed
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

It don't happen no more
That was a long time ago
It's a pitiful shame
How the world has changed

It don't happen no more
That was a long time ago
It's a pitiful shame
How the world has changed

I've got papers on you baby
You gotta do what i say
I've got papers on you baby
You gotta do what i say
I mean business darlin', i'm too old to play
I've got papers on you baby
And i mean you're mine, all mine
I've got papers on you baby
And i mean you're mine, all mine
If you do just what i tell you darlin'
We're gonna get along real fine

Now the red light means stop
Green light means go
Tell you something once
I ain't gonna tell you no more

I've got papers on you baby
You gotta do what i say
I got old baby, and i'm too old to play

Well i see that you eat
And i see that you got a place to stay
I see that you eat
And i see you got a place to stay
But as long as live in this house
I ain't gonna let you have your way

I've got papers on you baby
And i mean in black and white
I've got papers on you
And i mean in black and white

Now i ain't hard to get along with
But you just gotta treat me right

Bells will be ringing, the glad - glad news
For what a christmas to have the blues
My baby's gone and i have no friends
To wish me greetings once again
Oh, crowds will be singing silent night
Christmas carols by candlelight

Please come home for christmas
Please come home for christmas
If not for christmas, by new year's night

Friends and relations, send salutations
As sure as the stars shine above
Yes it's christmas, christmas my dear
It's the time of the year -- time of the year
To be with the one you -- the one you really love

Oh won't you tell me, we'll never grow old

Christmas and new years will find you home
They'll be no more sorrow, no more grief and pain
Because i'll be happy that it's christmas once again

Please come home for christmas baby
They'll be no more sorrow, no more grief and pain
Because i'll be happy, lord i'll be so happy
Happy once again

Now just because your pretty, and you think you're mighty wise
You tell me that you love me, then you roll those big brown eyes
When i saw you last week, your eyes were turnin' black
Go find the guy that beat you up - ask him to take you back
Don't roll those bloodshot eyes at me
I can tell you've been out on a spree
Well it's plain that you're lyin'
When you say that you've been cryin'
Don't roll those bloodshot eyes at me

I used to spend my money, to make you look real sweet
I wanted to be proud of you when we walked down the street
Now don't ask me to dress you up, in satin and in silk
Your eyes look like two cherries in a glass of bottled milk

Don't roll those bloodshot eyes at me
I can tell you've been out on a spree
Well it's plain that you're lyin'
When you say that you've been cryin'
Don't roll those bloodshot eyes at me

So i guess our little romance has finally simmered down
You should join the circus, you make a real good clown
Your eyes look like a roadmap, i'm scared to smell your breath
You better shut your peepers before you bleed to death

Don't roll those bloodshot eyes at me
I can tell you've been out on a spree
Well it's plain that you're lyin'
When you say that you've been cryin'
Don't roll those bloodshot eyes at me

Don't roll those bloodshot eyes at me
