Ry Cooder — If Walls Could Talk lyrics

Lyrics

Well, if things could talk then I’m sure you’d hear
A lot of things to make you cry my dear
Ain’t you glad
Oh, ain’t you glad
Ain’t you glad
Glad that things don’t talk
Now, if shoes could tell where they’ve been
When you say you’ve been visiting a friend
Ain’t you glad
He-he-hey, ain’t you glad
But ain’t you glad
Glad that shoes don’t talk
Now, if doors could tell who’s turned the knob
When he’s away out on his job
If cars could tell who’s been inside
And who’s been taking you out for a ride
Ain’t you glad
Oh, ain’t you glad
But ain’t you glad
Glad that cars don’t talk
In a world of trouble I’d be If things ever told on me My whole life would be through
'Cause I’m guilty, how about you?
If things ever talk that way
Ain’t no telling what they might say
Ain’t you glad
Oh, ain’t you glad
Ain’t you glad
Glad that things don’t talk
