Smiling face and loving eyes
But you keep on telling me all those lies
How´d you expect me to believe?
Honey, I ain’t that naive
Baby, I´ve got my eye on you
´Cause you do all the things I want you to
Stop your crying and dry your tears
I ain’t that wet behind the ears

And you can throw me lefts
And you can throw me rights
But where was you last night?
Beatin´ around the bush

Wish I knew what´s on your mind
And why you´re being so unkind
Remember those nights we spent alone
Talking on the telephone?
Thoughts of you go through my brain
Told me that you felt the same
Don´t say that you love me too
Tell me who would lie with you?

[Chorus 2]
I was talking birds
And you was talking bees
Or was he down upon his knees?
Beatin´ around the bush

[Guitar Solo 1]

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´ve eaten your cake, you want some more
I´m gonna give you just a one more chance
Try to save our romance
Done everything I´m going to do
The rest is up to you

[Chorus 3]
And you can chew it up
And you can spit it out
Let it all hang out
Beatin´ around the bush

[Guitar Solo 2]

[Outro]
Chew it up
Spit it out
Let it all hang out
Beatin´ around the bush
