Don`t whisper gossip about her though it may be true what you say
I don`t want to hear it I don`t need to hear it
To me she`s better than most and I love her
Don`t talk to me of affairs in the past give her your blessings she`s found love at last
So don`t whisper gossip about her though it may be true what you say
The stories you rake up can`t cause us to break up
To me she`s better than most and I love her
[ steel - fiddle ]
The tears that she`s cried have not been in vain
Tears clean a heart of heartaches and shame
So don`t whisper gossip about her your stories can`t stand in our way
Cause I`ll just upset them forgive and forget them
To me she`s better than most and I love her
