People talkin´ tryin´ to break us up
Why won´t they let us be
Bricks and stones may break my bones
but talk don´t bother me

People talkin´ tryin´ to break us up
When they know that I love you so
So I don´t care what the people may say
I´ll never never let you go

I´ve been abused
(I´ve been abused)
In my heart
(my heart´s been torn)
I´ve been accused
(I´ve been accused)
I´ve been ´buked
(I´ve been ´buked and I´ve been stung)

People talkin´ tryin´ to break us up, yeah
Scandlizin´ my name
They´ll say anything just to make me feel bad
Yes anything to make me shame
