Don't beat around the bush c'mon tell me what you want from me
I ain't a man to push but our love's gone yes siree
Crazy things that you do, make me sad, make me blue
You've been two timing honey, trying to make a fool out of me
You've been beating round the bush
And I ain't a man to push no
But you've done wrong by me
Don't you know you've been beating round the bush
And I ain't a man to push no
But you've done wrong by me, yeah
Beating round the bush
Oh, buddy can't you see you took my cutie chickadee
Guess I always knew she'd put a dark cloud over me
So it's you, it ain't me, take a look and you'll see
She's a two timin' woman
She's gone and made a fool out of me, yeah
You've been beating round the bush
And I ain't a man to push no
But you've done wrong by me
Don't you know you've been beating round the bush
And I ain't a man to push no
But you've done wrong by me, yeah
Beating round the bush
