George Jones – Say It’s Not You Lyrics

Darlin’, there’s talk around town
‘Bout a girl who spreads love around
Well softly
Darling, say it’s not you!

They say that she comes in alone
They say her self respect is gone
That each night she leave with someone new
Darlin’, say it’s not you!

At first what they said didn’t hurt me
Until they mentioned her name
Then slowly the tears overtook me
‘Cause her name and yours is the same.

Each night till the breaking of dawn
I’m praying that your not one
Tell me love, say it’s not true
Darlin’, say it’s not you!

Darlin’, say it’s not you!
Shine all your sweet love on me…
