Rumors

1. Listen while you read
Songwriters: Alex L Hill, Mike Marshall, Marcus Arnett Thompson
How do rumors get started
They're started by the jealous people
And they get mad seeing something
They had and somebody else is holding.

They tell me that temptation is very hard to resist
But these wicked women, ooh, they just persist
Maybe you think it's cute, but girl
I'm not impressed, I'll tell you one time only
With my business please, don't mess.

[Chorus:]
When you look at all these rumors surrounding
Me every day I just need some time, some time
To get away from from all these rumors
I can't take it no more, my best friend said
There's one out now about me and the girl next door.

2. Did you hear the one about Tina
Some say she's much too loose
That came straight from a guy who claims
He's tasted her juice, did you hear the one about Michael?
Some say he must be gay I tried to argue

But they said if he was straight
He wouldn't move that way
Did you hear that one about Susan
Some say she's just a tease in a camisole
She's six feet tall, she'll knock you to your knees.

3. I can't go no place without somebody
Pointing a finger I can't show my face
â€~Cause when it comes to rumors I'm a dead ringer
It seems from rumors I just can't get away.

I'll bet there'll even be rumors floating around on
Judgment Day I'll think I'll write my congressman
And tell him to pass a bill, so the next time they catch
Somebody starting rumors, shoot to kill.

4. What's mine is mine, I ain't got time for rumors
In my life I'm a man who thinks, not a man who drinks
So please let me live my life, what's mine is mine
I ain't got time for rumors in my life.

Look at all these rumors
I'm a man who thinks, not a man who drinks
So please let me live my life what's mine is mine
I ain't got time for rumors in my life.

Look at all these rumors
I'm a man who thinks, not a man who drinks
So please let me live my life.

[Chorus x2]

[Coda:]
Stop, stop spreading those rumors around
Stop, stop spreading the lies
Stop, stop spreading those rumors around
Stop, stop spreading the lies.

Stop, stop spreading those rumors around
Stop, stop spreading the lies
Stop, stop spreading those rumors around
Stop, stop spreading the lies.

Stop, stop spreading those rumors
Around stop, stop spreading the lies.
