"Had You Told It Like It Was (It Wouldn't Be Like It Is)" lyrics
(No no, not like it is)
(No no, not like it is)
When I spoke to you, I said how do you do
It didn't mean I wanted to marry you
You told your friends, this was a real thing
Now they askin' to see the wedding ring
Had you told it like it was (yeah, yeah)
Had you told it like it was (yeah, yeah)
Had you told it like it was
It wouldn't be like it is
(No no, not like it is)
(No no, not like it is)
My telephone rang today about noon
It was your mother asking about a wedding in June
But when I finished talking she was mad as could be
Because I told her to forget it, she'd never boss me
Had you told it like it was (yeah, yeah)
Had you told it like it was (yeah, yeah)
Had you told it like it was
It wouldn't be like it is
(No no, not like it is)
You sure took me for granted
And that isn't right at all
I hope you understand now
Your up isn't kind before
It's much too late, to start talking too fast
'Cause you know, your dream was in the past
It's all over now, and it's plain to see
I ain't got you, you ain't got me
Had you told it like it was (yeah, yeah)
Had you told it like it was (yeah, yeah)
Had you told it like it was
It wouldn't be like it is
(No no, not like it is)
You sure took me for granted
And that isn't right at all
I hope you understand now
Your up isn't kind before
It's much too late, to start talking too fast
'Cause you know, your dream was in the past
It's all over now, and it's plain to see
I ain't got you, you ain't got me
Had you told it like it was (yeah, yeah)
Had you told it like it was (yeah, yeah)
Had you told it like it was
It wouldn't be like it is
(No no, not like it is)
Had you told it like it was
It wouldn't be like it is
(No no, not like it is)
Had you told it like it was
It wouldn't be like it is
(No no, not like it is)
(No no, not like it is)
When I spoke to you, I said how do you do
It didn't mean I wanted to marry you
You told your friends, this was a real thing
Now they askin' to see the wedding ring
Had you told it like it was (yeah, yeah)
Had you told it like it was (yeah, yeah)
Had you told it like it was
It wouldn't be like it is
(No no, not like it is)
(No no, not like it is)
My telephone rang today about noon
It was your mother asking about a wedding in June
But when I finished talking she was mad as could be
Because I told her to forget it, she'd never boss me
Had you told it like it was (yeah, yeah)
Had you told it like it was (yeah, yeah)
Had you told it like it was
It wouldn't be like it is
(No no, not like it is)
You sure took me for granted
And that isn't right at all
I hope you understand now

(No no, not like it is)
Had you told it like it was
It wouldn't be like it is
(No no, not like it is)
Had you told it like it was
It wouldn't be like it is
(No no, not like it is)
