[Verse 1]
You're standing much too close to me again
I'd never once touched you
But in my mind I've already sinned
You're making it hard for me to be true

[Chorus]
I don't trust me around you

[Verse 2]
Seems like every place I go I see you there
I can't keep my eyes off you
I just stand and stare
You tempt me more than anyone I ever knew

[Chorus]
I don't trust me around you

[Verse 3]
I don't trust me around you
I belong to someone else
Not once have I been untrue
But when I'm close to you this way I find myself wanting to

[Chorus]
I don't trust me around you

Dolly Rebecca Parton (born January 19, 1946) is an American singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, actress, author, and philanthropist, best known for her work in country music

Beginning her career as a child performer, Parton issued a few modestly successful singles from 1959 through the mid-1960s, showcasing her distinctive soprano voice. She came to greater prominence in 1967 as a featured performer on singer Porter Wagoner’s weekly television program; their first duet single, a cover of Tom Paxton’s “The Last Thing on My Mind”, was a top-ten hit on the country singles charts, and led to several successful albums before they ended their partnership in 1974. Moving towards mainstream pop music, Parton’s 1977 single “Here You Come Again” was a success on both the country and pop charts. A string of pop-country hits followed into the mid-1980s, the most successful being her 1981 hit 9 to 5" (from the film of the same name), and her 1983 duet with Kenny Rogers “Islands in the Stream”, both of which topped the U.S. pop and country singles charts. A pair of albums recorded with Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris were among her later successes. In the late 1990s, Parton returned to classic country/bluegrass with a series of acclaimed recordings
