I Don't Want To Hear It Anymore
In my neighbourhood, where folks don't live so good now
The rooms are small, most of building's made of wood
I hear the neighbours talking about you and me
Yes, I've heard most every word
Cause the talking's loud, and the walls are much too thin
"She don't really love him" Oh, that's what I heard them say
"She sure wasn't thinking of him today"
"I saw her in the courtyard", said that girl in room 1-49
"Talking to a boy I've never seen before and standing there together
Don't you know they looked so fine"
No, I don't want to hear it anymore, I don't want to hear it anymore
Cause the talk just never ends and the heartache soon begins
The talk is so loud and the walls- they're much too thin
"Lord, ain't it sad", said the woman across the hall
"That a nice boy like that falls in love
Hey, it's just too bad that he had to go and fall
For a girl who doesn't care for him at all"
No, I don't want to hear it anymore...
...
Oh, I wish they wouldn't talk so loud and expose my heartache to the crowd
These walls around me are so thin, sometimes I think they're moving in
Yeah...
