Don’t tell your friends

I may be single
But I like to mingle
Won’t mess around town with a frown on this clown
But when it comes to talking about where I’m hanging my shingle
I’d rather not here about it in a word or a jingle

Don’t Tell Your Friends that We’re Datin
It will get the other men grinning and hatin
I won’t ever keep you waitin
We may be talking we may be matin
Just don’t tell your friends that we’re datin

When I was in school
I followed this rule
Keep it close be verbose only when we’re in repose
Cuz too many people like to sit round and drool
And gossip all around while shooting some pool

Don’t Tell Your Friends that we’re Datin
It will get the other men grinning and hating
I won’t ever keep you waitin
We may be talking we may be matin
Just don’t tell your friends that we’re datin

Singing a song
Comes back along
With fish on the dish and with every wish
But whether I’m right and whether you’re wrong
Talking about it doesn’t truly belong

Don’t Tell Your Friends that We’re Datin
It will get the other men grinning and hatin
I won’t ever keep you waitin
We may be talking we may be matin
Just don’t tell your friends that we’re datin

Don’t tell your friends that we’re datin
You’ll get your girlfriends all jealous and hatin
I won’t ever keep you waitin
Don’t need to say it to get you to be relatin
Just don’t tell your friends that we’re datin
