(Ray Pennington - Don Reno)

They warned me not to fall in love with you
said you would only break my heart
Your kind you just can never change
no you can't make a heel toe the mark.

You can't stop time from rollin' on
you can't keep a man from goin' wrong
You can't change the daylight to dark
And you can't make the heel toe the mark.

A leopard can never change its spots
Big tiger would never change its stripes
A hound dog would never change its bark
And you can't make the heel toe the mark

You can't stop time from rollin' on
you can't keep a man from goin' wrong
You can't change the daylight to dark
And you can't make the heel toe the mark.

And you can't make the heel toe the mark...
