Lyrics

DON'T TALK THAT WAY
Copyright 1990 Walter Salas-Humara
Published 1990 Voltone Music (BMI)

Going down to the bottom
Don't give me that worthless glance
Give me your mouth
Give me your bad, bad mouth

(Don't talk that way)
Don't talk to me about my baby
(Don't talk that way)
Don't talk to me about my baby

She said she couldn't breathe
When them little fingers began to move
Teeth clenched in her lips in a spasm of horror
Them little fingers, wrinkled as prunes

Repeat Chorus

Going down to the bottom
He got on the nigh pole
You get in there in the middle Pete and do it for us
You clap three times and we go, go, go

Repeat Chorus
