Jealous Words
From 'The Old Kit Bag' (2003)
DOh sweet Rosie Lee
DLike a sister to me
DBut you thought I was playing you smart
FJealous wDords Fwon't lie stAill iFn my hDeart F D
You saw us there dancing
And you thought us romancing
Suspicion has ripped us apart
Jealous words won't lie still in my heart
With yGour interpretation on my reputation
You blDinded yourself to the truth
To Gadd some more weight to your ramblings of late
Well, dFear won't you bring us some prAoof
How you cursed and you cried
As you locked me outside
You said I was bad from the start
Jealous words won't lie still in my heart
How your father abused
And your mother accused
They said I was acting a part
Jealous words won't lie still in my heart
Oh I knew when we met you'd never forget
Each pothole and bump in the road
And if I left your side what a blow to your pride
You're that better than me I suppose
Oh the doubt in me is growing
And it hurts me just knowing
Another night's sleep will depart
Jealous words won't lie still in my heart
