You Can't Do That

(album: The Beat Goes On - 1968)

I've got something to say
That's gonna cause you pain
If I catch you talking to that boy again
I'm gonna let you down
And leave you flat

Because I told you before, oh
You can't do that

Now, that's the second time
I catch you talking to him
If I see you doing it one more time, I'm gonna think it's a sin, baby
I'm gonna let you down (Let you down)
And leave you flat (Gonna let you down and leave you flat)
What do you think of that?
Come on!

Because I've told you before, mmm
You can't do that, oh

Everybody's green (Everybody's green!)
That I'm the one who won your love
And if you're seen
Talking that way they're gonna laugh, laugh in my face

Oh now, please listen to me, if you wanna be mine
I can't get this feeling, I'm going out of my mind
I'm gonna let you down (Let you down)
I'm gonna leave you flat (Gonna let you down and leave you flat)
Lord, Lord, Lord

I've told you before, oh
You can't do that

Mmm, sure!

Everybody's green (Everybody's green!)
I'm the one who won your love
Now baby, if you're seen
Talking that way
Laugh in my face

Please listen to me, if you wanna, wanna be mine
I can't get this feeling, starting [?] from my mind
Oh, I'm gonna let you down, let you down, let you down (Let you down)
I'm gonna leave you flat (Gonna let you down and leave you flat)

Hey cause I've told you before, woah
You can't do that
Mmm, baby!
Now I've told you before, yeah yeah
You can't do that
Because I've told you before
