Beating Around the Bush

Smilin' face and laughin' eyes

But you keep on tellin' me all those lies

How'd you expect me to believe

Honey I ain't that naive

Baby I got my eye on you

Cause you do all the things I want you to

Stop your cryin' and dry you tears

I ain't that wet behind the ears

You can throw me lefts

You can throw me rights

But where was you last night

Beating around the bush

Wish I knew what was on your mind

Why you bein' so unkind

Remember those nights we spent alone

Talking on the telephone

Thoughts of you goin' throw my brain

You told me that you felt the same

You said that you loved me too

But tell me who was there with you

I was talkin' birds

And you was talkin' bees

And was he down upon his knees

Beating around the bush

Your the meanest woman I've ever known

Sticks and stones won't break my bones

I know what you're lookin' for

You've eaten your cake you want some more

I'm gonna give you just one more chance

Try to save our romance

I've done everything

I'm gonna do

The rest is up to you

And you can chew it up

You can spit it out

You can let it all hang out

Beating around the bush

Chew it up

Spit it out

Let it all hang out

Beating around the bush
