WALLS HAVE EARS, THE (And Windows Have Eyes)
(Irving Gordon)
Patti Page - 1959
Mary said
That Jenny said
That Willie said
That Johnny said
That Susie said
That you don't love me anymore
Not anymore
The walls have ears
And the windows have eyes
Everybody is wise
They know our dreams went wrong
Our dreams went wrong
The whispered wind
Told the babbling brook
And the babbling brook
Can't keep a secret long
Not very long
And though I try to hide
The longing that fills my heart
Fills my heart
Somehow that lonely tears
Play peek-a-boo
Oh, the walls have ears
And the windows have eyes
Everybody is wise
They know I still love you
I still love you
(Mary said)
That you don't love me anymore
(Willie said)
That you don't love me
But everybody's wise
They know I still love you
You
Mary said
That Jenny said
That Willie said
That Johnny said
That Susie said
That Jenny said
That Willie said
That Johnny .... FADE
