Lyrics

Don't talk about her, she does the best she can
Don't talk about her, Don't talk about her
She's just lost her man
She's lonely, just try and understand.

And if you can't say something nice
Don't say anything at all
Don't you know that she's had a bad, bad fall
And if you can't say something nice
Don't say anything at all.

Don't talk about her, because she feels that way
Don't talk about her, don't talk about her
She don't feel so good today
She's crying, because her baby walked away.

And if you can't say something nice
Don't say anything at all
Don't you know that she's had a bad, bad fall
And if you can't say something nice
Don't say anything at all.
