You Know How Talk Gets Around Lyrics - Eddy Arnold

I'm hearing funny stories and they're far from being true 

But you know how talk gets around 

Those busy tongues are wagging saying I walked out on you 

But you know how talk gets around 

I must admit our romance wasn't all that it should be 

We tried to claim a love we'd never found 

They say you're living reckless and they're blaming it on me 

But you know how talk gets around 

I hear you're glad we parted that you're saying you don't care 

Now you know how talk gets around 

They're telling everybody that I didn't treat you fair 

And you know how talk gets around 

I wish I wasn't quite so proud when I'm around with friends 

Then I wouldn't feel so honor bound 

I'd give the world to tell them how I'd love to make amends 

But you know how talk gets around
