Album: Just Earrings (1965)

Sticks And Stones

People talkin'
Tryin' to break us up
Why don't they let us be?
Sticks and stones might break my bones
But talk don't bother me
People talkin'
Tryin' to break us up
I know I love you so
I don't care what people say
I'll never never let you go
I've been abused in my heart
I've been accused
I've been rebuked and I've been stalked
People talkin'
Tryin' to break us up
You know they're tryin' to blacken my name
They'll say anything there is to make me feel bad
Anything to make me shame
People talkin'
Tryin' to break us up
Why won't they let us be?
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But talk don't bother me
