I Gotta Tell It

by Darlene Love

Lyrics
Girl! Let me tell you about this woman over here. All she does is a-
Talk, talk, talk! Honey, can't you ever keep that thing shut? No!

I gotta tell it (Don't you be no fool)
Oh, I gotta tell it (Girl, shut your mouth)
I gotta tell it (Don't you be no fool)
I gotta tell everybody how it (This is it)

Well, he walked in my life and he made it
A mess (Who he?) He did! (He did?) Oh yeah!
I'm a young girl and I need my rest
That's why I gotta get it off of my chest

I gotta tell it (Don't you be no fool)
I gotta tell it (Girl, shut your mouth)
I gotta tell it (Don't you be no fool)
I gotta tell everybody how it (This is it)

Well, I'm telling everybody all over
Town (Gotta tell it, gotta tell it)
Just what he's been putting down (Gotta tell it)
Left me lying and he cheats (Gotta tell it, gotta tell it)
That's why I'm gonna put his business in the street

I gotta tell it (Don't you be no fool)
Oh, I gotta tell it (Girl, shut your mouth)
I gotta tell it (Don't you be no fool)
I gotta tell everybody how it (This is it)

Oh, tell it (Don't, don't, don't you be no fool)
Oh, I gotta tell it (Don't, don't, don't you be no fool)
Oh, I... (Don't, don't, don't you be no fool)
Oh, I gotta tell it (Don't, don't, don't you be no fool)
Oh, I gotta tell everybody how it (This is it)

Well, he's a big phony, he's a big
Head (Who he?) He is! (He is?) Oh yeah
He's a talking mouth among these men (Gotta tell it, gotta tell it)
Ain't nothing to him, he's just a big bag of wind

I gotta tell it (Don't you be no fool)
Oh, I gotta tell it (Girl, shut your mouth)
I gotta tell it (Don't you be no fool)
Oh, tell it (Don't, don't, don't you be no fool)
Oh, tell it (Don't, don't, don't you be no fool)
Oh, I... (Don't, don't, don't you be no fool)
Oh, tell it (Don't, don't, don't you be no fool)
Oh, I gotta tell it (Don't, don't, don't you be no fool)
Oh yeah, I gotta tell it
