Lyrics

Don't Go Making Promises:

A promise that is broken
Is nothing but a lie
You say you do your best
You say you really try
Holding to the truth
Is a mountain way too steep
So don't go making promises
You know you just can't keep

So who's this fellow Steve
On whom you have a crush
Psychoanalyzed
I think Freud would blush
I glance into your soul
Each night I take a peep
Don't go making promises
You know you just can't keep

I wonder what you're counting
When you say you're counting sheep
I'm getting information
When you're talking in your sleep
So don't go acting innocent
My Little Bo Peep
And don't go making promises
You know you just can't keep

A roster of your fellows
You read out when you dream
Really hurts my feelings
Not being on the team
You say that you can trust me
For faith that's quite a leap
Don't go making promises
You know you just can't keep

I wonder what you're counting
When you say you're counting sheep
I'm getting information
When you're talking in your sleep
So don't go acting innocent
My Little Bo Peep
And don't go making promises
You know you just can't keep

Maybe I should go
'It's hurtin' on my soul
I just don't want to know anymore
Anymore--No--No--No

I wonder what you're counting
When you say you're counting sheep
I'm getting information
When you're talking in your sleep
So don't go acting innocent
My Little Bo Peep
And don't go making promises
You know you just can't keep

You know you just can't keep
Don't go making promises
