I have heard rumors all over town
They say that you're planning to put me down
All I'd like you to do is tell me that it isn't true
They say that you've been seen with some other man
That he's tall, dark and handsome, and you're holding his hand
Darling, I'm a-counting on you
Tell me that it isn't true
To know that some other man is holding you tight
It hurts me all over
It doesn't seem right
All of these awful things that I have heard
I don't want to believe them
All I want is your word
So darling, you better come through
Tell me that it isn't true
They say that you're planning to put me down
All I'd like you to do is tell me that it isn't true
They say that you've been seen with some other man
That he's tall, dark and handsome, and you're holding his hand
Darling, I'm a-counting on you
Tell me that it isn't true
To know that some other man is holding you tight
It hurts me all over
It doesn't seem right
All of these awful things that I have heard
I don't want to believe them
All I want is your word
So darling, you better come through
Tell me that it isn't true

They say that you're planning to put me down"
Planning to put me down? It scans and rhymes, but makes no sense. It could only make sense in the following tortuous scenario: Girl having troubles with Bob. She doesn't actually tell anyone where the source of Bob's awfulness lies. She instead tells people that, on a future date yet to be decided, she will divulge why Bob is such a terrible boyfriend. Then these people tell their friends that Bob's girlfriend will, sometime in the near future, tell an expectant township just why Bob is such a terrible boyfriend. This has never happened in the history of human relationships.
