Now true love never does run smooth
At least that's what I'm told
And if that is true then ours must be good as gold
'Cause every night we battle and I beg you for a kiss
That's when I have to start explaining' and it sounds a bit like this

Dearie, please don't be angry
'Cause I was only teasin' you

I wouldn't even let you think of leavin'
Don't you know I love you true
Just because I took a look at somebody else
That's no reason you should put poor me on a shelf

So, dearie, please don't be angry
'Cause I was only teasin' you

Don't believe a thing you hear, just wait 'till you see,
Then you'll find no cause to show that you're jealous of me!
Oh! dearie, please don't be angry,
'Cause I was only teasing you!
