Don't play it no more
Don't play it no more
Don't play it no more
No no no no no no no
Don't play that song for me
It brings back memories
The days that I once knew
The days that I spent with you
Oh no! Don't let it play
It fills my heart with pain!
Please stop it right away!
I remember jus what it said
It said darling I love you (you know that you lied!)
Darlin I love you (you know that you lied!)
Darlin I love you (you know that you lied-you lied you
Lied lied lied)
Don't play it no more
Don't play it no more
Don't play it no more
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
I remember on our first date?
You kissed me and you walked away
You were only seventeen
I never thought you'd act so mean
You said
Darling, I love you (but baby you lied!)
Darling, I love you (yes baby you lied!)
Darling, I love you (you know that you lied!)
Darling, I love you (you know that you lied!)
Darling, I love you (you know that you lied!)
Darling, I love you (you know that you lied-you lied you
Lied, lied, lied
