People talkin'

Tryin' to break us up

Why don't they let us be?

Sticks and stones might break my bones

But talk don't bother me

People talkin'

Tryin' to break us up

I know I love you so

I don't care what people say

I'll never never let you go

I've been abused in my heart

I've been accused

I've been rebuked and I've been stalked

People talkin'

Tryin' to break us up

You know they're tryin' to blacken my name

They'll say anything there is to make me feel bad

Anything to make me shame

People talkin'

Tryin' to break us up

Why won't they let us be?

Sticks and stones may break my bones

But talk don't bother me
