Peo ple are talk ing, talk ing a bout peo ple.

May be they’re see ing some thing we don’t, it, dar ling.

(D)Let’s give them some thing to (A)talk a bout.

Let’s give them some thing to (A)talk a bout.

I wan na give them some thing to (A)talk a bout.

I want your (Bm)love.

And I feel so fool ish.

I nev er no ticed that, ba by, you’re act-ing so nerv-ous you like you’re fall ing.
