Albert King - Had You Told It Like It Was It Wouldnt Be Like It Is Lyrics

( (Oh no, not like it is) )
( (Oh no, not like it is) )


When I spoke to you, I said how do you do
It didn’t mean I wanted to marry you
You told your friends, this was a real thing
Now they askin’ to see the wedding ring


Had you told it like it was (yeah, yeah)
Had you told it like it was (yeah, yeah)
Had you told it like was, it wouldn’t be like it is
(Oh no, not like it is)

(Oh no, not like it is)
(Oh no, not like it is)

My telephone rang today about noon
It was your mother asking about a wedding in June
But when I finished talking she was mad as could be
Cause I told her to forget it, she’d never boss me


Had you told it like it was (yeah, yeah)
Had you told it like it was (yeah, yeah)
Had you told it like was, it wouldn’t be like it is
(Oh no, not like it is)
You sure took me for granted
And that isn’t right at all
I hope you understand now
Your up isn’t kind before

It’s much too late, to start talking too fast
Cause you know, your dream was in the past
It’s all over now, and it’s plain to see
I ain’t got you, you ain’t got me

(Chorus)
Had you told it like it was (yeah, yeah)
Had you told it like it was (yeah, yeah)
Had you told it like was, it wouldn’t be like it is
(Oh no, not like it is)

You sure took me for granted
And that isn’t right at all
I hope you understand now
Your up isn’t kind before

It’s much too late, to start talking too fast
Cause you know, your dream was in the past
It’s all over now, and it’s plain to see
I ain’t got you, you ain’t got me
Had you told it like it was (yeah, yeah)
Had you told it like it was (yeah, yeah)
Had you told it like was, it wouldn’t be like it is
