Beating Around The Bush

(Young, Young, Scott)

Smiling face and laughing eyes
But you keep on telling me all those lies
How do you expect me to believe
Honey I ain't on my knees
Baby I got my eye on you
But you do all the things that I want you to
Stop your crying and dry your tears
I ain't that wet behind the ears

You can throw me left
And you can throw me right
The way we do this night
Beating around the bush

Wish I knew what's on your mind
Why you're being so unkind?
Remember those nights you spent alone
Talking on the telephone?
Thoughts of you go through my brain
You told me that you felt the same
You said that you love me too
Tell me what's wrong with you

I was talkin birds
I was talkin bees
or was he down upon his knees
Beating around the bush

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 ate your cake, you want some more
I'm gonna give you just a one more change
Try to save our romance
I've done everything I'm gonna do
The rest is up to you

You can chew it up
And you can spit it out
Let it all hang out
Beating around the bush
