"put words in your mouth"
"put words in your mouth",.
I think the meaning of this clause is someone gives you the temptation to say what he/she wanna you say. Am I right? What does that exactly mean?

Yes, if someone puts words in your mouth, they either
- say things and claim you said them
- get you to say something they want you to say
- tell you to say something they want you to say

"Don't put words in my mouth" means to twist the meaning of what someone has said, making it sound like something YOU would want to hear.
