It Don't Work That Way Lyrics - Singles - Jerry Reed

She's nothin' but a woman just another pretty face 

You can't find another girl just to take her place 

No use a makin' a fool of yourself you can't find a somebody else 

But honey it don't work that way and I'm just kiddin' myself when I say 

I'll forget someday cause honey real love it don't work that way 

It looks mighty good this smile I wear actin' like I just don't care 

If anybody mentions yesterday I'll just try to laugh it away 

But honey it don't work... 

I can walk around puttin' on there tellin' everybody that I don't care 

But it's hard to hide the pain inside when a lonely heart is missin' you 

And the love that we once knew 

'Cause I've tried to take the memory of all the love you gave to me 

And put it off out of my heart so I can make a brand new start 

But honey it don't work...
