Loose Talk - John Prine, Connie Smith

So long weve been married

Lifes burdens we carried

Though faith kept us humble and made our love true

But plans that we make up Someone seems to break up Oh, darlin, what else can we do?

We may have to leave here

To find peace of mind, dear

Someplace where we can live a life of our own

I know you love me and happy we could be If some folks would leave us alone

When I go out walkin

Theres lots of loose talkin

They say were unhappy, and well drift apart

But darlin its not true

Because I still love you

And I do with all of my heart

They say you are leavin

That you are deceivin

But you tell me they say the same about me Oh, but well show them theyre wrong

That loose talk can do harm

And hope that the truth they will see

We may have to leave here

To find peace of mind, dear

Someplace where we can live a life of our own

I know you love me And happy we could be If some folks would leave us alone

If some folks would leave us alone
