How do rumors get started, they're started by the jealous people and

They get mad seein' somethin' they had and somebody else is holdin'

Tell me that temptation is very hard to resist

But these wicked women, ooh, they just persist

Maybe you think it's cute, but girl, I'm not impressed

I tell you one time only with my business please don't mess



Look at all these rumors surroundin' me every day

I just need some time, some time to get away from

From all these rumors, I can't take it no more

My best friend said there's one out now about me and the girl next door



Hear the one about Tina, some say she's much too loose

That came straight from a guy who claims he's tastin' her juice

Hear the one about Michael, some say he must be gay

I try to argue, but they said if he was straight he wouldn't move that way

Hear the one about Susan, some say she's just a tease

In a camisole she's six feet tall, she'll knock you to you knees



Will you look at all these rumors surroundin' me every day

I just need some time, some time to get away from

From all these rumors, I can't take it no more

My best friend said there's one out now about me and the girl next door



I can't go no place without somebody pointin' a finger

I can't show my face â??cause when it comes to rumors I'm a dead ringer

It seems from rumors I just can't get away

I bet there'll even be rumors floatin' around on Judgment Day

I'll think I'll write my congressman and tell him to pass a bill

For the next time they catch somebody startin' rumors, shoot to kill



Will you look at all these rumors surroundin' me every day

I just need some time, some time to get away from

From all these rumors, I can't take it no more

My best friend said there's one out now about me and the girl next door



What's mine is mine, I ain't got time for rumors in my life

I'm a man who thinks, not a man who drinks, so please let me live my life

What's mine is mine, I ain't got time for rumors in my life

I'm a man who thinks, not a man who drinks, so please let me live my life

What's mine is mine, I ain't got time for rumors in my life

I'm a man who thinks, not a man who drinks, so please let me live my life



Will you look at all these rumors surroundin' me every day

I just need some time, some time to get away from

From all these rumors, I can't take it no more

My best friend said there's one out now about me and the girl next door



Look at all these rumors surroundin' me every day

I just need some time, some time to get away from

From all these rumors, I can't take it no more

My best friend said there's one out now about me and the girl next door



Stop (Stop) spreadin' those rumors around

Stop (Stop) spreadin' the lies

Stop (Stop) spreadin' those rumors around

Stop (Stop) spreadin' the lies



Stop (Stop) spreadin' those rumors around

Stop (Stop) spreadin' the lies

Stop (Stop) spreadin' those rumors around

Stop (Stop) spreadin' the lies



Stop (Stop) spreadin' those rumors around

Stop (Stop) spreadin' the lies
