Don’t talk about her don’t talk about her she’s just lost her man. She’s lonely just try and understand. CHORUS: 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? So if you can’t say something nice don’t say anything at all. #2. 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. CHORUS: 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. OUTRO: A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
