You keep on telling me how much I mean to you I'm your life you can cut me with your knife And I'll keep comin' runnin' back to you Don't do it baby, don't do it baby Don't press me, don't drive me in the ground Don't test me, don't make me turn around You'd never be the one to tell me that I'm wrong You talk about a change, singin' home on the range But you're singin' a stale old song Don't do it baby, don't do it baby Don't press me, don't test me Don't press me baby, don't make me turn around You know I just can't take your mean old stranglin' ways You try to rearrange and you're pushin' for a change But you know it's gonna stay the same Don't do it baby, don't do it baby Don't press me, don't drive me in the ground Don't test me, don't make me turn around You keep on telling me how much I mean to you I'm your life you can cut me with your knife And I'll keep comin' runnin' back to you Don't do it baby, don't do it baby Don't press me, don't drive me in the ground Don't test me, don't make me turn around You gotta get it through your head I'm a woman on my own You know I got my life and you're lookin' for a wife But you know what you were gettin' when you got it
