"Billie Jean" lyrics - THE CIVIL WARS

She was more like a beauty queen from a movie scene
I said, "Don't mind, but what do you mean I am the one
Who will dance on the floor in the round?"
She said I am the one who will dance on the floor in the round

She told me her name was Billie Jean as she caused a scene (Ooh)
Then every head turned with eyes that dreamed of being the one,
Who will dance on the floor in the round

People always told me, be careful what you do (Ooh)
Don't go around breaking young girls' hearts (No!)
And mother always told me, be careful who you love
Be careful what you do, the lie becomes the truth (Hey)

Billie Jean is not my lover,
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
The kid is not my son,
She says I am the one
But the kid is not my son

For forty days and for forty nights, law was on her side
But who can stand when she's in demand, her schemes and plans (Ooh)
'Cause we danced on the floor in the round,
So take my strong advice
Just remember to always think twice (Oh, think twice)
She told my baby we'd danced till three, then she looked at me
Then showed a photo, my baby cried, his eyes looked like mine, (Oh no)
'Cause we dance on the floor in the round.

People always told me, be careful what you do, (Ooh)
Don't go around breaking young girls' hearts (No)
She came and stood right by me, because the smell of sweet perfume
It happened much too soon, she called me to her room
Hey-ey!

Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one,
But the kid is not my son
She says I am the one,
But the kid is not my son

So, Billie Jean is not my lover, (She just a girl)
Billie Jean' is not my lover, (She just a girl)
Billie Jean is not my lover...
