Exposé lyrics - Guy Clark

Now when you write your expose
I wish you'd leave me out
I'd just as soon you didn't use my name
I'm not crazy 'bout the way
Your book might make me look
I might have been there but
you can't hold me to blame

Now when you write your expose
Don't kiss and tell it all
No one likes a tattletale writin' on the wall
Don't go talkin' out of school
'Cause you know you got no call
If you can't say somethin' nice
Don't say anything at all

Well I opened up my heart to you
I let it all hang out
I told you stuff that no one else should know
So don't betray my trust in you
Shame, shame if you do
Don't drag that crap back up just let it go

Now when you write your expose
Don't kiss and tell it all
No one likes a tattletale writin' on the wall
Don't go talkin' out of school
'Cause you know you got no call
If you can't say somethin' nice
