Somebody Told You

Somebody Told You - Irma Thomas

It’s always somebody sayin’ this

Somebody sayin’ that

But never a fact

Somebody told you

I was playin’ you for a fool

Somebody told you that I was untrue

They keep you guessin’ of

Where I’m at

It’s always somebody sayin’ this

Somebody sayin’ that

But never a fact

Somebody told you I was runnin’ around

Somebody said with Mr. Brown across town

If you don’t stay sharp

You might believe the lie

It’s always somebody sayin’ this

Somebody sayin’ that

But never a fact

Ooh, why, why you accept those lies

Wake up, be smart, open your eyes

If you keep on listenin’ at ’em

I know you’ll see

They’ll convince you

That one and one is three

Somebody told you I was runnin’ around

Somebody said with Mr. Brown across town

If you don’t stay sharp

You might believe the lie

It’s always somebody sayin’ this

Somebody sayin’ that

But never a fact

It’s always somebody sayin’ this

Somebody sayin’ that

But never a fact

It’s always somebody sayin’ this

Somebody sayin’ that

But never a fact
