Well, I know darlin’ I was on your mind
You know darlin’ you were not on mine, well I
Try to relent to you and I try to see
but I know whatever I say you won’t believe me
Well you know how much I want to but I
Can’t promise nothin’ to you
Well you’re a right doll, darlin’, you know I won’t lie
You know I like her babe you can see it in my eyes
But the college hound tells me I’m too sick to play
He pumps sense into me but he just won’t stay
Well you know how much I want to but I
Can’t promise nothin’ to you
Well darlin’ all these promises are makin’ me ill
You can’t get satisfied, you can’t get your fill
I’m spinnin’ round in all directions, I’m goin’ blind
It ain’t me, baby, I’m not your kind - alright
Now the confessor’s gone and told all my lies
Sister Marie’s left me now she might televise
Everything that’s gone my way I can’t ignore
I don’t wanna deal with this anymore
Well you know how much I want to but I
Can’t promise nothin’ to you
Well, three days later, I’m still stuck inside
Engineer’s got secrets that he won’t confide
And he’s makin’ me such promises and he thinks my life is cheap
Everybody’s got their own agendas to keep
Well you know how much I want to but I
Can’t promise nothin’ to you
