"Suspicious Minds" lyrics
"Suspicious Minds"
We're caught in a trap, I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
Why can't you see what you're doin' to me
When you don't believe a word I say?
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds (With suspicious minds)
And we can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds
So if an old friend I know stops by to say hello
Would I still see suspicion in your eyes?
Here we go again, asking where I've been
You can't see the tears are real, I'm cryin' (Yes, I'm cryin')
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds (With suspicious minds)
And we can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds
Oh, let our love survive
I'll dry the tears from your eyes
Let's don't let a good thing die
When, honey, you know I've never lied to you
Mm, yeah, yeah
We're caught in a trap, I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
Why can't you see what you're doin' to me
When you don't believe a word I say?
Well, don't you know I'm caught in a trap? I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
Well, don't you know I'm caught in a trap? I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
Well, don't you know I'm caught in a trap? I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
Well, don't you know I'm caught in a trap? I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
Well, don't you know I'm caught in a trap? I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
Well, don't you know I'm caught in a trap? I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
Thanks to Reagan for correcting these lyrics.

Kenny Rogers - "The Gambler" On a warm summer's evening
On a train bound for nowhere
I met up with a gambler
We were both too tired to sleep
So, we took turns a-staring
Out the window at the darkness

And...

Singin', "Do wah diddy, diddy, dum diddy do"
Snappin' her fingers and shufflin' her feet

She looked good...

Come on Eileen
Poor old Johnnie Ray
Sounded sad upon the radio
But he moved a million hearts in mono

Lucille, you won't do your sister's will?
You ran off and married, but I love you still
