(Dolly Parton)

I can't be true no matter what I do 
It's a weakness of mine, nothin' to do with you 
So don't expect it of me though I expect it of you 
I love you, I do, but I can't be true 
Men are my weakness I've got a roving eye 
And I've fallen victim to many a smile 
I just love the excitement of love when it's new 
I'm just a hopeless romantic so I can't be true, I can't be true 

I can't be true no matter what I do 
It's a weakness of mine, nothin' to do with you 
So don't expect it of me though I expect it of you 
I love you, I do, but I can't be true, I can't be true 

Some play it safe while some like it hot 
I guess you could say I never knew when to stop 
But when I'm lovin' you, I'll give it all that I got 
It might be different with you to know I can't be true 

I can't be true no matter what I do 
Oh I get around, and I break all of the rules 
Now that you know it's true, I'll leave the rest up to you 
I'll be good to you, but I can't be true, I can't be true 

I can't be true no matter what I do 
It's a weakness of mine, its not a weakness in you 
So don't expect it of me though I expect it of you 
I really love you, I do, but I can't be true, I can't be true 

I can't be true no matter what I do 
Oh I get around, and I break all of the rules 
Now that you know it's true, I'll leave the rest up to you 
I'll be good to you, but I can't be true, I can't be true
