"I Can't Be True" Lyrics

(Dolly Parton)

I can't be true no matter what I do
It's a weakness of mine nothing to do with you
So don't expect it of me though I expect it of you
I love you I do but I can't be true.

Men are my weakness I've got a roving eye
And I've fallen victim to many a smile
I just love the excitement of love when it's new
I'm just a hopeless romantic so I can't be true I can't be true.

I can't be true no matter what I do
It's a weakness of mine nothing to do with you
So don't expect it of me though I expect it of you
I love you I do but I can't be true.

I can't be true.

--- Instrumental ---

Some play it safe while some like it hot
I guess you could say I never knew when to stop
But when I'm loving you I'll give it all that I got
It might be different with you to know I can't be true.

I can't be true no matter what I do
Oh, I get around and I break all of the rules
Now that you know it's true I'll leave the rest up to you
I'll be good to you but I can't be true I can't be true.

I can't be true no matter what I do
It's a weakness of mine it's not a weakness in you
So don't expect it of me though I expect it of you
I really love you I do but I can't be true I can't be true.

I can't be true no matter what I do
Oh, I get around and I break all of the rules
Now that you know it's true I'll leave the rest up to you
I'll be good to you but I can't be true I can't be true...
