I DON'T BELIEVE IN RUMOURS
Jimmy Lambert / Harry Glick / Frederick E Cliffe

as recorded by Perry Como
(radio transcription) 1943


Somebody else
Told somebody else,
And that somebody said we were through!
But I don't believe in rumours, darling,
I want it straight from you!

Wherever I walk,
The people all talk,
And they're saying it's time that I knew!
But I don't believe in rumours, darling,
I want it straight from you!

For everyone knows
How a rumour grows
When the gossips are doing their worst,
But somehow I feel,
If the stories were real,
You would have come to me first!

Whatever they say,
Say what they may,
Still it isn't a thing you would do,
So I won't believe in rumours, darling,
I want it straight from you!

For everyone knows

Say what they may,
Still it isn't a thing you would do,
So I won't believe in rumours, darling,
I want it straight from you!
