Talk of the Town Lyrics


There's this guy in this place and he looks me in the face
And he tells me 'bout this girl that took him home
And there's this girl and she says that she's never been with him
And she tells me things that I don't wanna know
There's a warning inside going off in my mind
You won't get me this time to forget about it
I know there's better things to talk about
And I believe that you're looking for so mis-romance
And I say that you don't know what you're talkin' 'bout
Well I can see so just pass is on to someone else
And say "It's just the talk of the town"
Week goes by and I ran into the guy
And he says that he heard I was with his girl
Well I carefully replanned, I'll quickly wink and smile
I don't wanna involved in drama world
There's a warning inside going off in my mind
You won't get me this time to forget about it
I know there's better things to talk about

And I believe that you're looking for so mis-romance
And I say that you don't know what you're talkin' 'bout
Well I can see so just pass is on to someone else
And say "It's just the talk of the town"
Did you hear what he said she said?
Did you hear what they said we said?
I don't wanna know, don't tell me
I don't really care what they say
I don't wanna know, what they say?
I don't really care, don't tell me
I know there's better things to talk about
And I believe that you're looking for so mis-romance
And I say that you don't know what you're talkin' 'bout
Well I can see so just pass is on to someone else
And say "It's just the talk of the town"
I know there's better things to talk about
And I believe that you're looking for so mis-romance
And I say that you don't know what you're talkin' 'bout
Well I can see so just pass is on to someone else
And say "It's just the talk of the town"

Wilfred Theodore (Ted) Weems (originally Wemyes) (26 September 1901 - 6 May 1963) was an American bandleader and musician. Born in Pitcairn, Pennsylvania, Weems attended the University of Pennsylvania where he organised a small dance band. Going professional in 1923, Weems toured for the MCA Corporation, recording for several years on Victor Records. "Somebody Stole My Gal" became the band's first #1 hit in early 1924. Weems moved to Chicago with his band around 1928. He had more chart success in 1929 with the novelty song "Piccolo Pete", and the #1 hit "The Man from the South".

The band gained popularity in the 1930s, making regular radio broadcasts on Jack Benny's Canada Dry and the Fibber McGee & Molly program. In 1936, the Ted Weems Orchestra gave singer Perry Como his first national exposure. Among Weems' other discoveries were whistler-singer Elmo Tanner, sax player and singer Red Ingle, Marilyn Maxwell, who left the band for an acting career, and arranger Joe Haymes, who created the band's unique jazz-novelty style.

During World War II, Ted Weems enlisted in the United States Merchant Marine. Reorganising his big band in 1947, he made records for Mercury, including the hits "Peg O' My Heart" and "Mickey". However, the biggest hit of Weems' career was a reissue of his 1933 song "Heartaches", which topped the national charts for 13 weeks. Despite this sudden popularity, the hits dried up after 1947. Weems toured until 1953. Ted Weems died of emphysema in Tulsa, Oklahoma, in 1963. His son Ted Jr. led a revival band at times during the 1960s and 1970s. Read more on Last.fm.
