INTRO: Em


CHORUS:

Oh, street talk has it, you've been down town laughing

That you've made a fool of me
                                              B
Making lotta noise, telling all the boys, I'm easy
       Em
Take a long walk baby, 'cause stabbing this lady

In the back when she ain't there

I ain't gonna take it 
       B                      Em      Am
'Cause smearing my name ain't fair


                              Em                  Am
I guess I shoulda known, when I turned you down
                            G                  Am
What kinda stories you'd be spreading around
                         Em
But anyone who knows me, knows it ain't true
    Am                           B
The dirt you've been throwing is all over you


CHORUS:
    Em
Oh, street talk has it, you've been down town laughing

That you've made a fool of me
                                              B
Making lotta noise, telling all the boys, I'm easy
       Em
Take a long walk baby, 'cause stabbing this lady

In the back when she ain't there

I ain't gonna take it 
       B                      Em      Am
'Cause smearing my name ain't fair


INSTRUMENTAL: Em        B   Em        B  Em   Am


                          Em                 Am
But baby, you know I just can't understand
                              G                 Am
How telling lies can make you feel like a man
                         Em
But anyone who knows me, knows it ain't true
    Am                           B
The dirt you've been throwing is all over you


CHORUS:
    Em
Oh, street talk has it, you've been down town laughing

That you've made a fool of me
                                              B
Making lotta noise, telling all the boys, I'm easy
       Em
Take a long walk baby, 'cause stabbing this lady

In the back when she ain't there

I ain't gonna take it 
       B                      Em   
'Cause smearing my name ain't fair
