Joel, Billy - Tell Her About It Lyrics






Listen boy
Don't want to see you let a good thing
Slip away
You know I don't like watching
Anybody make the same mistakes
I made

She's a real nice girl
And she's always there for you
But a nice girl wouldn't tell you what you should do

Listen boy
I'm sure that you think you got it all
Under control

You don't want somebody telling you
The way to stay in someone's soul

You're a big boy now
You'll never let her go
But that's just the kind of thing
She ought to know

Tell her about it
Tell her everything you feel
Give her every reason to accept
That you're for real

Tell her about it
Tell her all your crazy dreams
Let her know you need her
Let her know how much she means

Listen boy
It's not automatically a certain guarantee
To insure yourself
You've got to provide communication constantly

When you love someone
You're always insecure
And there's only one good way
To reassure

Tell her about it
Let her know how much you care
When she can't be with you
Tell her you wish you were there
Tell her about it
Every day before you leave
Pay her some attention
Give her something to believe

Cause now and then
She'll get to worrying
Just because you haven't spoken
For so long
Though you may not have done anything
Will that be a consolation when she's gone

Listen boy
It's good information from a man
Who's made mistakes
Just a word or two that she gets from you
Could be the difference that it makes

She's a trusting soul
She's put her trust in you
But a girl like that won't tell you
What you should do

Tell her about it
Tell her everything you feel
Give her every reason
To accept that you're for real
Tell her about it
Tell her all your crazy dreams
Let her know you need her
Let her know how much she means

Tell her about it
Tell her how you feel right now
Tell her about it
The girl don't want to wait too long
You got to tell her about it
Tell her now and you won't go wrong
You got to tell her about it
Before it gets too late
You got to tell her about it
You know the girl don't want
To wait - you got to
Tell her about it

    The 31st of July 1963 was not a Sunday , but a Wednesday

  13. L.... T....

    Well, I told her about it. Now she won’t even talk to me anymore. :(

  14. T.... F....

    Then she'll call you creepy. Amongst evey other version of sexual deviant under the sun. I'm hammered down with paranoia. Nobody responds. Just puts you on a wonderful to do. Different times indeed where you get your balls worn as a medallion , because you smiles politely

  15. G.... 6....

    I took Billy's advice and told her about it....we have been divorced for 4 years now. Thanks Billy.….not.

  16. l.... v....

    🙌👏🙌👏🙌👏🤝👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

  17. M.... S....

    Still a hit song in 2020?

  18. L.... m....

    She told me about it, and five years later we are together ❤️💎❤️

  19. P.... ....

    When yuh love ah girl yuh really have to "Tell she about it"

  20. N.... V....

    Billy Joel, delivering pizza to the bedroom of teenage girls in lingerie instead of the actual house door since 1983! ;) 2:49

  21. T.... H....

    1100 people won't tell her about it.

  22. P.... ....

    If you tell her about it today




    you get ghosted

  23. E.... K....

    Billy Joel be looking like Jerry Seinfeld in this vid.🤣

  24. H.... A....

    Damn im so glad that billy warmed up the crowd for Rodney Dangerfield

  25. K.... B....

    Billy Joel is so underrated. I saw him in concert last month. He was still awesome.

  26. a.... ....

    Not sure that's a convincing representation of the Ed Sullivan Show. "Thank you, Topo Gigio." Ah, I stand corrected.

  27. S.... G....

    This guy has style B J

  28. P.... M....

    1980 iloved years🙏👍🇵🇷

  29. D.... k....

    Excellent tribute to James Jamerson , & the Motown funk-brothers.

  30. B.... S....

    Billy Joel at the peak of his vocal prowess.

  31. D.... N....

    I hope Billy Joel had a good day today, that’s all.
    I hope Billy Joel only has good days for the rest of his life.

  32. C.... B....

    I feel like this song is talking directly to me

  33. L.... R....

    One of my favourites from Mr Billy Joel.....

  34. I.... G....

    Brought to you by B.J. AND THE AFFORDABLES

  35. B.... 1....

    So around his time of year. My family would all come together to celebrate the holidays. However a couple years back my two older sister had other plans and that REALLY upsets my mother. She crying and being really sad about it. My solution? I asked Alexa to play Billy and by convenience songs like “My life” “movin’ our” “You May be right” and “tell her about it”. All songs about living life how you want to live or telling someone something important, which made my mom realize my sisters are adults and they can do what they want. My mom felt alone but she wasn’t I reminded her she had me. So thank you Billy. For helping my mom realize she wasn’t alone for the holidays.

    B.... 1....

    Well done! Billy could cheer her up, of course he could! 😁
    And even being alone at the end of December is not so bad - I speak from experience for several years.

  36. o.... ....

    ed sullivan or richard nixon ?

  37. K.... 1....

    who is the guy backstage?

  38. m.... ....

    Love this song! 2019

  62. K.... ....

    July 31, 1963 was a WEDNESDAY

  63. C.... M....

    I SWEAR Billy Joel is the wing man ever

  64. J.... F....

    Back when pop music was good. Now days it's nothing but autotuned garbage.

  65. J.... J....

    i get no respect no respect at all -Rodney Dangerfield

  66. A.... Q....

    This is my favorite song of him. Too bad it's not as famous as Uptown Girl and therefore not played that often live

  67. A.... B....

    this is my favorite billy joel videos, love the song too, he kicked ass on 80's videos

  68. a.... ....

    One of the greatest songs and music videos of all time

  69. E.... 2....

    This song played in my science class today and I just needed to hear it again

  70. i.... w....

    July 31st 1963 was actually a Wednesday.

  71. K.... C....

    This DOUCHE BAG lost Christy Brinkley and the ASS CLOWN is going to be preachy and tell people how to hang onto a Woman.

  72. t.... ....

    Oh, When I was 12.

  73. C.... S....

    Ironically, Billy had the title song to Rodney Dangerfield's Easy Money off the same album, hence the appearance at the end.

  74. f.... s....

    I would love to see him live but he only performs in America

    f.... s....

    free speech is no more fascism is alive and well 2 where do you live?

    f.... s....

    free speech is no more fascism is alive and well 2 he was there this summer

    f.... s....

    @Emi Jimenez in the UK??? 😭

    f.... s....

    free speech is no more fascism is alive and well 2 well at Wembley Stadium in June

  75. B.... C....

    Rodney Dangerfield's reaction at the end, hahahahaha I'm telling you I get no respect, hahahahaha

  76. N.... D....

    I remember this from Friday Night Videos. I think i was 7 at the time. No i didnt get to stay up that late. My Dad worked Graveyard shift, get home and pushed the record button on VCR. Next morning bowl of Cereal & F. N. V. 's back to back.

  77. S.... B....

    Do yourself a favour and DON'T "tell her about it" because trust me - if you do - she'll just think you're a right tool. Man up and don't be such a baby

  78. A.... C....

    31 July 1963 DID NOT fall on a Sunday. The more appropriate date would have been 28 July 1963.

  79. J.... ....

    The world needs another album like this

  80. B.... M....

    You the man

  81. O.... ....

    Play this at my wedding

  82. D.... T....

    Thank you Bill Joel, i talked about my doubts and her ignorance AND MAN you saved from a horibble disaster of a relationship i am happy that i broke up with her

  83. k.... ....

  84. H.... ....

    That guy at the end, can't get any respect!

  85. B.... C....

    July 31, 1963 was on a Wednesday not Sunday, hahahahaha

  86. p.... F....

    I guees that this video tells a lot about being in love. It is a long time since I have been there in touch with this gigantic sea of emotional power.

  87. S.... ....

    This is so good~

  88. S.... B....

    Shout out to everyone whose significant other never appreciated you, despite how much you loved them, despite how much you showed it. Y’all deserve the world.

  89. K.... G....

    Still listening at 2019. The music nowadays are not as soulful as these days.

  90. A.... B....

    such a good and forgot song

  91. S.... U....

    If you gotta crush on someone tell them and tell them what they mean to you and make them feel special

  92. C.... ....

    I’m in this song and I don’t like it.

  93. A.... S....

    The best.

  94. p.... ....

    Genius song, author and singer.

  95. W.... D....

    The guy playing Ed Sullivan looks more like Richard Nixon, and Rodney Dangerfield wouldn't have looked that old in 1963.

  96. K.... K....

    I saw billy joel in concert

  97. j.... j....

    Poor Rodney

  98. J.... C....
