Lyrics
Shame, shame on you
Expressing disapproval or condemnation towards someone
Shame, shame on you
Reiterating the disapproval or condemnation towards the same person
Took my heart as a token
Accusing the person of taking the speaker's heart as a symbol of love
When returned, it was broken
Indicating that when the heart was returned, it was damaged or hurt
Hide your face, shame on you
Advising the person to hide their face due to their actions
Shame, shame on you
Expressing disapproval or condemnation once again
Oh, shame, shame on you
Reiterating the disapproval or condemnation towards the same person
Ran around with other guys
Accusing the person of being unfaithful by being involved with other guys
Tried to lie when I got wise
Accusing the person of attempting to deceive when the speaker became aware
Foolish boy, shame on you
Calling the person foolish and expressing disapproval
Shame, shame on you
Expressing disapproval or condemnation once again
Shame, shame, shame on you
Reiterating the disapproval or condemnation towards the same person
Can you hold your head up high
Posing a question about the person's ability to maintain self-respect
Look your friends right in the eye?
Challenging the person to face their friends with honesty
No, you can't, shame on you
Stating that the person cannot hold their head up high and expressing disapproval
Oh, no, you can’t, so shame on you
Reiterating that the person cannot hold their head up high and expressing disapproval
