That Ain't The Way I Heard It

After you came in late last night You said you'd been alone Just needed some room to clear your mind A little time away from home Told me you were down on Highway 9 Down by the river bend But this town has ears and this town has eyes And a whole lot of so called friends Ooh, that ain't the way I heard it Ooh, that ain't the way I heard it Don't you think I wanna trust every word you say Don't you think I wanna look in your eyes And feel suspicion slip away When you say you got nothin' to hide Ooh, that ain't the way I heard it Ooh, that ain't the way I heard it Throw me out a lifeline baby Offer me a grain of truth Treat me with a little bit of dignity I think I deserve that much from you Gimme one reason for stayin' cool Tell me they're no good liars Don't make me play your pathetic fool Baby show me that old desire After you came in late last night You said you'd been alone Just needed some room to clear your mind A little time away from home Told me you were down on Highway 9 Down by the river bend But this town has ears and this town has eyes And a whole lot of so called friends And ooh, that ain't the way I heard it Ooh, that ain't the way I heard it That ain't the way I heard it That ain't the way I heard it That ain't the way I heard it
