[Verse 1]
You can't stop a tattler
And there ain't no use in you tryin'
Just as long as this world lasted
They gonna find somebody lyin'
[Verse 2]
Oh, deliver me from a woman or either man
You know, now it's all "the go"
That will go about from house to house
And tell everything that they know
[Verse 3]
Oh, people ought to quit tattlin'
I'll tell you for the reason why
They don't always know what they're talkin' about
And may be carryin' a lie
[Verse 4]
Oh, there's lots of good women now, wantin' to marry
And they wants to live well at home
But they're afraid they will get a-hold of a rowdy man
That won't let other women alone
[Verse 5]
Well there's lots of good men now, wantin' to marry
And they wants to live well at home
But he's 'fraid every time his back turned, there's a man there
Asking, "Darling, is he gone?"
