Foghat Lyrics
"Silent treatment"

I woke up last night about half past four
two police cars at my door
said you'd been drunk and out of control
you ran my car into a telephone pole
tell me baby, is it true what I heard
you never said a word

don't give me that silent treatment (2x)
when you do something bad
it only drives me mad, you do it every time

well, I said, "hey baby, what you tryin' to do
the things I heard about you can't be true
every night you're out on the town
you run my money into the ground
"hey baby, were you out with the boys"
you never made a noise

don't give me that silent treatment (2x)
when you do something bad
it only drives me mad, you do it every time

well you broke my heart, it was an accident
just like my money, all my love is spent
I don't know why but I can't get through to you

don't give me that silent treatment (2x)
when you do something bad
it only drives me mad, you do it every time

well you broke my heart, it was an accident
just like my money, all my love is spent
I don't know why but I can't get through to you

don't give me that silent treatment (2x)
when you do something bad
it only drives me mad, you do it every time
oh yeah

don't give me that silent treatment (2x)
when you do something bad
it only drives me mad, you do it every time

don't give me that silent treatment (2x)
when you do something bad
it always drives me mad, you do it every time

don't give me that (silent treatment)
(silent treatment)
you do something bad
it only drives me mad, you do it every time

don't give me that (silent treatment)
you do something bad
it only drives me mad, you do it every time

don't give me that silent treatment (2x)

when you do something bad
it only drives me mad, you do it every time

don't give me that
