I walked a ragged mile it was somethin’ obscene
Knew I had to get back to the place that I’d been
She was high tail an’ floatin’ and her action was clean
I said the dice is loaded and she looked at me real mean and said
Ain’t no tellin’

She turned away and stamped her foot and swore at the floor
I said now listen babe I know I just can’t give you no more
She swung round real slow with the fire in her eyes
As she stared at me I burned and thought a thousand replies I said

Ain’t no tellin’ what love can do
Ain’t no tellin’ it’s up to you
I said I’m through believin’, believin’ in you
‘Cause there ain’t no tellin’ what love can do

I was buzzin’ an’ a breathin’ so hard I could have choked
I took a long hard pull at the cigarette she smoked
I thought that I was crazy goin’ outta my mind
She was holdin’ me so tight tryin’a see what she could find
I said ain’t no tellin’

I said ain’t no tellin’ what love can do
Ain’t no tellin’ your whole life through
I said I’m through believein’, believin’ in you
‘Cause there ain’t no tellin’ what love can do
What love can do etc.

I said there ain’t no tellin’what love can do
Ain’t no livin’ your whole life through
I said I’m through believein’, believin’ in you
‘Cause there ain’t no tellin’ what love can do
What love can do etc.

She turned away and stamped her foot and swore at the floor
I said now listen babe I know I just can’t give you no more
She swung round real slow with the fire in her eyes
As she stared at me I burned and thought a thousand replies I said

Ain’t no tellin’ what love can do
Ain’t no tellin’ it’s up to you
I said I’m through believin’, believin’ in you
‘Cause there ain’t no tellin’ what love can do
What love can do etc. Ain’t no tellin’ what love can do, ain’t no tellin’
