with all your jive talkin',

Good lovin', still gets in my eyes.
Nobody believes what you say;

Oh, my love, you are so good, 
treating me so cruel.  
There you go__ with your fancy lies,__

with all your jive talkin', 
you're tellin' me lies, yeah;
jive talkin', you wear a disguise.
Jive talkin', so misunderstood, yeah.

Love talkin' is all very fine,_ yeah;
jive talkin' just isn't a crime.__
And if there's somebody you'll love till you die,
then all that jive talkin' just gets in your eye.
