Hush now, don't explain
You're the cause of all my trouble and pain
Unless you're mine
Don't explain

My love, my love, my love, don't explain
There is nothing within me now to gain

You know that I love you, but look at what lovin' has done
All my thoughts were real and so sincere
I was so completely yours

I know I hear folks ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-chatter
And I know you cheat
Right or wrong, right now it doesn't matter
You're here with me, sit down, have a seat
It's your turn to feel the pain
It's your turn to weep
Don't explain

Hush now, don't explain
There is nothing within me now to gain
I'm gonna escape out your steel
Don't explain
Don't explain
