Don't Tell Me That

Well I came to your door just the other day
The smile that I wore soon faded away
I knocked and I knocked 'til I wore out my fist
Then my heart dropped, Lord I can’t believe this
Get Away Slim on your welcome mat
Baby, baby, baby, baby, don’t tell me that
Don’t tell me that, don’t tell me that
Don’t ya tell me that’s where your love is at
You used to be my baby and you always was home
Now you got me crazy cause ya always gone
Something’s wrong, Lord I sure smell a rat
Baby, baby, baby, baby, don’t tell me that
Well I look around the corner and what do I see
Your doggone Homer homin' in on me
I thought he was my pal so I brought him a bone
He looked at me and growled, now the chase is on
Something’s wrong, Lord I sure smell a rat
Baby, baby, baby, baby, don’t tell me that
Don’t tell me that, don’t tell me that
Don’t ya tell me he thinks that I’m your cat
He used to be my buddy and we got along fine
Now I’m all bloody, hangin' on your clothesline
Lookin' round for where my pants is at
Baby, baby, baby, baby, don’t tell me that
Well I look outside and there a whoopin' on my car
A big ole guy with a giant crowbar
He looked at me and grinned, I could tell you right away
He ain’t no friend but yeah he wanted to play
I took off a runnin' and I left him flat
Baby, baby, baby, baby, don’t tell me that
Don’t tell me that, don’t tell me that
Don’t ya tell me you’ve got a brand new bat
If you want me gone I can sure take a hint
Now don’t you depend on an accident
Something’s wrong, Lord I sure smell a rat
Baby, baby, baby, baby, don’t tell me that
