Speak No Evil Songtext
von Dragon

We all live in a small town
In a tumble-down shed
Mama, she was a good, good woman
She worked so hard
Worked her fingers to the bone
And us kids grew up on our own

She said, you′ll see it
And you'll hear it

Baby, don′t speak no evil
Baby, don't speak no evil

Papa, he was a good, good man
And he worked so hard

He said, you'll see it
And you′ll hear it

Baby, don′t speak no evil
My baby, don't speak no evil
Baby, don′t speak no evil
What he said


Baby, don't speak no evil
My baby, don′t speak no evil
Baby, don't speak no evil
What he said

You′ll have your turn
Baby, don't speak no evil

So they put us through school
And kept us clothed and fed
We went swimmin' in summer
Rememberin′ what mama said
We moved into town
Saw all the people messin′ around

And she said, you'll see it
And you′ll hear it

But baby, don't speak no evil
Baby, don′t speak no evil
Baby, don't speak no evil
Is what she said
What she said

You′ll hear it
Baby, don't tell no secrets
You may be old enough to be a man
And no one can love you like a family can


Baby, don't speak, baby, don′t speak
Baby, don′t speak no evil
Baby, don't speak no evil
Is what she said
What she said

Baby, don′t speak no evil
My baby, don't speak no evil
Baby, don′t speak no evil
What she said

(Baby don't speak no evil)
(Baby don′t speak no evil)
(Baby don't speak no evil)

Baby, don't speak, baby, don′t speak
Baby, don′t speak no evil
No evil (baby, don't speak no evil) no evil
No evil (baby, don′t speak no evil)
(Baby, don't speak no evil) no evil
My baby, don′t speak no evil
That's what she said
What she said
No evil
