I got something to say that might cause you pain

If I catch you talking to that boy again

I 'm gonna let you down and leave you flat

Because I told you before, oh, You Can't Do That

Well it's the second time I 've caught you talking to him

Do I have to tell you one more time I think it's a sin

I think I 'll let you down (let you down )

And leave you flat (gonna let you down and leave you flat )

Because I 've told you before, Oh, You Can't Do That

Ev'rybody's green

' Cause I 'm the one who won your love, but if it's seen

You 're talkin that way, they 'd laugh in my face.

So please listen to me if you wanna stay mine

I can't help my feelings I 'll go out of my mind

I know I 'll let you down (let you down )

And leave you flat (gonna let you down and leave you flat )

Because I 've told you before, oh, You Can't Do That.
