What I Don't Know (Won't Hurt Me)

They told me that you didn't love me

And all these things I know, I just know they ain't true

Yes, they told me I should find somebody new

Somebody who would make better love, better love, much better love than you

I wanna tell y'all

I don't care what the people say

What I don't know it won't hurt me any whole way

Oh, no way

They told me you used to stay out at night

Somebody said, "Bettye, that man, that man ain't gonna treat you right"

Yes, and they told me I should find somebody new

Somebody who would make better love, better love, much better love than you

I wanna tell y'all

I don't care what the people say

What I don't know ain't gon' hurt me no way

No, no way

They told me that you didn't love me

And all these things I know, I just know they ain't true

Yes, and they told me I should find somebody new

Somebody who would make better love, better love, much better love than you

I wanna tell y'all

I don't care what the people say

What I don't know it won't hurt me any whole way

Won't hurt me, no way

They told me you used to stay out at night

Somebody said, "Bettye, that man, that man ain't gonna treat you right"

Yes, and they told me I should find somebody new

Somebody who would make better love, better love, much better love than you

I wanna tell y'all

I don't care what the people say

What I don't know won't hurt me any whole way

Ain't gon' hurt me, no way

I heard what they say

Ain't gon' hurt me no way

They can talk if they want to

It ain't gon' hurt me no way

It ain't gon' hurt me no way

Oh, no

Oh, no
