Your tweetin' heart will make you weep,
You'll cry and cry and try to sleep.
But sleep won't come the whole night through,
Your tweettin' heart will tell on you.

When tears come down like fallin' rain,
You'll toss around and hope for fame.
You'll walk the floor the whole night thru,
Your tweetin' heart will tell on you.

Your tweetin' heart will find some day,
And crave the soul you threw away.
The time will come when you'll be blue,
Your tweetin' heart will tell on you.

When tears come down like fallin' rain,
You'll toss around and cry in vain.
You'll walk the floor, your days are through,
Your tweetin' heart will tell on you.
