Sticks And Stones   (T. Turner) 1965 Just Ear-rings

People talkin’ about breaking up, can’t let us be

Sticks and stones maybe break my bones and talk don’t bother me

People talkin’ about breaking up, scattered around my dear

Sticks and stones maybe break my bones and I’ll never be the same

I’ve been abused, oh my heart

I’ve been abused, oh I’ve been abused right from the start

People talkin’ about breaking up, can’t let us be

Sticks and stones maybe break my bones and talk don’t bother me

I’ve been abused, oh my heart

I’ve been abused, oh I’ve been abused right from the start

People talkin’ about breaking up, can’t let us be

Sticks and stones maybe break my bones and talk don’t bother me
