Street Talk

Street talk has it you've been down town bragging

That you've made a fool of me making a lot of noise

Telling all the boys that I'm easy

Take a long walk baby

'cause stabbing this lady in the back

When she ain't there

I ain't gonna take it 'cause smearing my name ain't fair

I guess I oughta know when I turned you down

What kinda stories you'd be spreading around

But anyone who knows me knows it ain't true

The dirt you've been throwing is all over you

Street talk has it you've been down town bragging

That you've made a fool of me making a lot of noise

Telling all the boys that I'm easy

Take a long walk baby

'cause stabbing this lady in the back

When she ain't there

I ain't gonna take it 'cause smearing my name ain't fair

But babe there's something I just can't understand

How telling lies can make you feel like a man

But anyone who knows me knows it ain't true

The dirt you've been throwing is all over you

Street talk has it you've been down town bragging

That you've made a fool of me making a lot of noise

Telling all the boys that I'm easy

Take a long walk baby

'cause stabbing this lady in the back

When she ain't there

I ain't gonna take it 'cause smearing my name ain't fair
