I Don't Want To Hear It Anymore

In my neighborhood

Where folks don't live so good now

The rooms are small

Most the buildings made of wood

I hear the neighbors talkin' about you and me

Yes, I've heard most every word

'Cause the talking's loud

And the walls are much too thin

"She don't really love him"

Oh, that's what I heard them say

"She sure wasn't thinkin' of him today

I saw her in the courtyard

Say, that girl in room 149

Talkin' to a boy I've never seen before

And standin' there together

Don't you know they looked so fine?"

No, I don't wanna hear it anymore

I don't wanna hear it anymore

'Cause the talk just never ends

And the heartache soon begins

The talk is so loud and the walls

They're much too thin

Lord, ain't it sad" said the woman 'cross the hall

"That when a nice boy like that falls in love

Hey, it's just too bad that he had to go and fall

For a girl who doesn't care for him at all"

No, I don't wanna hear it anymore

I don't wanna hear it anymore

'Cause the talk just never ends

And the heartache soon begins

Oh, they talk so loud and the walls

Are much too thin

Oh, I wish they wouldn't talk so loud

And expose my heartache to the crowd

These walls around me are so thin

Sometimes I think they're movin' in
