Sticks And Stones

Lyrics

People talkin' tryin' to break us up

Why don't they let us be?

Sticks and stones may break my bones

But talk don't bother me

Now, people talkin' tryin' to break us up

When they know that I love you so

So I don't care what the people might say

I'll never, never let you go

I've been abused (I've been abused)

In my heart (I've been accused)

I've been accused (I've been accused)

I've been rebuked and I've been stung

People talkin' tryin' to break us up

Scandalizin' my name

They say anything just to make me feel bad

They'll say anything to make me ashamed

I've been abused (I've been abused)

In my heart (I've been accused)

I've been accused (I've been accused)

I've been rebuked and I've been stung

People talkin' tryin' to break us up

Scandalizin' my name

They say anything just to make me feel bad

They'll say anything to make me ashamed
