Lucy Kaplansky - It Ain't Me, Babe Lyrics

Go away 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

Who's never weak but always strong

To protect you an' defend you

Whether you are right or wrong

Someone to open each and every door

But it ain't me, babe

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

It ain't me, you're lookin' 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 your 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 you an' more

But it ain't me, babe

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

It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe

Go melt back in the night

Everything inside is made of stone

There's nothing in here moving

An' anyway, I'm not alone

You say, you're looking 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 you life an' nothing more

But it ain't me, babe

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

It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe
