You've got a way of turning back on the words you say
You tell me one thing, mean another
Boy, I've had enough, so I'm packing up
Might even take a little bit of your stuff
But I'm leaving you the one thing that I don't really need
Keep your promises, baby
I ain't gonna let you play me
They're just empty words you're saying
They don't mean a thing, mean a thing
Save your breath and tell your lies to some, somebody else
You don't keep your promises
So keep your promises to yourself
Ooh, ooh
Keep your promises
Remember that time you said that you would be home by nine
I waited for you 'til midnight then I went to bed alone
Baby, that's just one of the let-me-down things you've done
There ain't nothing you can say to make me wanna stay
Keep your promises, baby
I ain't gonna let you play me
They're just empty words you're saying
They don't mean a thing, mean a thing
Save your breath and tell your lies to some, somebody else
You don't keep your promises
So keep your promises to yourself
Keep your promises, baby
I ain't gonna let you play me
They're just empty words you're saying
They don't mean a thing
Save your breath and tell your lies to some, somebody else
You don't keep your promises
So keep your promises to yourself (promises)
Ooh, ooh
Keep your promises to yourself
Ooh, ooh
Keep your promises to yourself
