Lyrics

Hush now, don't explain

There ain't nothing to gain

Well, I'm glad you're back

But don't explain

Quiet, baby, don't explain

You know, there ain't nothing to gain

Skip that lipstick

Don't explain

You know that I love you

And what love endures

All my thoughts are of you

I am so completely yours

Don't want to hear nobody chatter

'Cause I know you cheat

Right or wrong, don't matter

When you're with me, sweet

Hush now, don't explain

You are my joy, and you're my pain

My love's yours, love

So don't explain

You know that I love you

And what love endures

All my thoughts are of you

I am so completely yours

Don't want to hear folks chatter

'Cause I know you cheat

Right or wrong, don't matter

When I'm with you, sweet

Hush now, don't explain

You know, you're my joy and you're my pain

My life's yours, love

Don't explain
