You Can't Stop A Tattler Part 1

You can't stop a tattler
And there ain't no use in you tryin'
Just as long as this world lasted
They gonna find somebody lyin'

Oh, deliver me from a woman or either man
You know, now it's all "the go"
That will go about from house to house
And tell everything that they know

Oh, people ought to quit tattlin'
I'll tell you for the reason why
They don't always know what they're talkin' about
And may be carryin' a lie

Oh, there's lots of good women now, wantin' to marry
And they wants to live well at home
But they're afraid they will get a-hold of a rowdy man
That won't let other women alone

Well there's lots of good men now, wantin' to marry
And they wants to live well at home
But he's 'fraid every time his back turned, there's a man there
Asking, "Darling, is he gone?"
