You've seen him on the street today
Heading for some sleaze cafe
He wasn't alone
He wasn't alone

Some beauty hung onto his arm
I shouldn't need to be alarmed
Now, he's done it before
Yes, he's done it before
Where and how, I don't want to know

You think she's one of his old flames
Some fiery-looking kind of dame
You found her dull but just the same
She stole the show
I don't want to know

Isn't it a crime of shame?
He wouldn't mention any name
Afraid I couldn't stand the pain
Or take a blow
Well, I don't want to know

You've seen him on the downtown side
Drinking hard and acting wild
He was not alone
Not on his own

You say he looked a sorry sight
You know he's had another fight
Well, he's done it before
Yes, he's done it before
Where and how, I don't want to know

A smile breaks on your poker face
Tells me, you're gonna throw the ace of spades
And drop it, and watch me fall on evil days
And let me go
No, I don't want to know

Why don't I try to understand
He's just as weak as any other man
He'll come back to me in the end
Now isn't that so?
Oh, I don't want to know
