She Don t Tell Me To
âMontgomery Gentryâ
Done by the Jetman
Intro: (2x)
Every now an then, on my home,
I stop at a spot where the wild flowers grow, an I pick a few,
Cause she don t tell me to.
V-1:
I go out with my boys all right,
Most of the time I call it a night before they do,
Cause she don t tell me to.
Sunday mornin , I m in church,
An my butt an my back an my necktie hurt, but I m in the pew,
She don t tell me to.
Refrain:
Any other woman I know would have tried,
To control me and it would be over.
-
Blame it on my goin on my own way attitude.
All of that stubbornness melts away,
When I wake with her head on my shoulder,
An I know I ve got to love her,
Until my life is through,
Cause she don t tell me to.
V-2:
Well, I got demons and I ve got pride,
But when I m wrong, I apologize like she s mine to lose,
Cause she don t tell me to.
Well, I got dreams in this heart of mine,
But nothin that I wouldn t lay aside if she asked me to.
Cause she don t tell me to.
An she don t, even know,
That she keeps me lookin for the next right thing to do,
Cause she don t tell me to.
-
Yeah, yeah.
Refrain:
Any other woman I know would have tried,
To control me and it would be over.
-
Blame it on my goin on my own way attitude.
All of that stubbornness melts away,
When I wake with her head on my shoulder,
An I know I ve got to love her,
Until my life is through,
What else can I do? What else can I do?
Whoa, I love her,
Cause she don t tell me to.
She don t tell me to.
Outro: (Slow)
Every now an then, on my home,
I stop at a spot where the wild flowers grow, an I pick a few,
Yes I do.
