I Don't Want To Hear Anymore - Jerry Butler

In my neighborhood

Where folks don’t live so good now

The rooms are small

Most the building’s made of wood

I hear the neighbors

Talking about you and me

Yes, I’ve heard most every word

Cause the talking’s loud and

The walls are much too thin

She don’t really love him

Oh, that’s what I heard them say

She sure wasn’t thinking of him today

I saw her in the front yard now

Say, that girl in room 149

Talking to a boy, well

I’ve never seen him before

And standing there together

Don’t you know they looked so fine

I don’t wanna hear it anymore

I don’t wanna hear it anymore

But the talk just never ends

The heartache soon begins

The talk is so loud and

The walls are much too thin

Lord, ain’t it sad

Said the woman cross the hall

That when a nice boy falls in love

Hey, it’s just too bad

That he just had to fall

For a girl who doesn’t

Care for him at all

Well, I don’t wanna hear it anymore

I can’t stand to hear anymore

But the talk just never ends

And the heartache soon begins

Oh, they talk so loud and

The walls are much too thin

Whoa, I wish they wouldn’t talk so loud

And expose my heartache to all the crowd
