I was offered the love
of a girl who is married
A girl who said she'd be true
So I went to my heart to
get the right answer
And here's what my heart said to do
Turn her down, down, you foolish man
Turn her down and leave her alone
Turn her down, down, as fast as you can
Turn her down and send her back home
And I told my heart
that this girl was so lonely
And that I was so lonely too
But my heart said forget her,
forget that you met her
There's only one right thing to do
Turn her down, down, you foolish man
Turn her down and leave her alone
Turn her down, down, as fast as you can
Turn her down and send her back
home
He said, my heart, you can find you
a girl who is single,
a girl you can call all your own.
If she can't be true
to the one that she married,
then she'll never be true to you.
Turn her down, down, you foolish man,
turn her down and leave her alone.
Turn her down, down, as fast as you can
Turn her down and send her back home
