Listen to me, Lil'
And to what I've got to tell ya
I've been through the mill
And I don't want to sell ya
But the game of love
Is hard to understand
So here's some good advice
Never overplay your hand
Don't gild the lily, Lily
Don't let him know he's your only thrill
Even though he knocks ya silly
When he looks at you with his eyes of blue
Don't gild the lily, Lily
Don't overdo on the sweet talk too
If you act a little chilly
He'll be hangin' round warming up to you
Oh Lil', I know what I say
Cause I've been through the mill
So don't gild the lily, Lil'
Oh Lil', I know what I say
Cause I've been through the mill
So don't gild the lily, Lil'
Don't gild the lily, Lily
Don't let him know he's your only thrill
Even though he knocks ya silly
When he looks at you with his eyes of blue
Oh Lil', I know what I say
Cause I've been through the mill
So don't gild the lily, Lil'
Oh Lil', I know what I say
Cause I've been through the mill
So don't gild the lily, Lil'
Del Shannon, pseudonimo di Charles Weedon Westover (1930-1995), è stato un cantautore e produttore discografico statunitense. Nato a Grand Rapids, Michigan, Shannon ha iniziato la sua carriera musicale negli anni '50 suonando in band locali. Nel 1961 ha raggiunto il successo internazionale con il brano "Runaway", che ha dominato le classifiche americane per diverse settimane. La canzone, caratterizzata da un riff di chitarra memorabile e una melodia orecchiabile, è diventata un classico del rock 'n' roll e continua ad essere suonata in radio e concerti oggi. Shannon ha pubblicato altri successi come "Hats Off to Larry", "Keep Searchin'", e "From Me to You". La sua musica ha influenzato generazioni di artisti e il suo stile unico, che mescolava elementi di rock 'n' roll, pop e country, lo ha reso un artista iconico. Del Shannon è morto nel 1995 a causa di una malattia cardiaca.
