Johnny Cash - It Ain't Me, Babe lyrics

Go way from my window

leave at your own chosen speed

I'm not the one you want, babe

I'm not the one you need

You say you're lookin' for someone

never weak but always strong

to protect you and defend you

whether you are right or wrong

Someone to open each and ev'ry door

but it ain't me, babe,

no, no, no, it ain't me, babe,

it ain't me you're looking for, babe

Go lightly from the ledge, babe

go lightly on the ground

I'm not the one you want, babe

I will only let you down

You say you're lookin' for someone

who will promise never to part

Someone to close his eyes for you

someone to close his heart

Someone who will die for and more

but it ain't me, babe,

no, no, no, it ain't me, babe,

it ain't me you're looking for, babe

Go melt back into the night, babe

Ev'rything inside is made of stone

There's nothin' in here movin'

an' anyway I'm not alone

You say you're lookin' for someone

who'll pick you up each time you fall

to gather flowers constantly

an' to come each time you call

A lover for your life an' nothin' more

but it ain't me, babe,

no, no, no, it ain't me, babe,

it ain't me you're looking for, babe
