Neighborhood Songtext

von Tift Merritt

I saw you with somebody
That you don't love
You like to show her off
You like to think highly of

The easy mistake that you made
She's a friend of a friend
A pretty fight in a dress
Just a goodbye again

Baby, you can't run round
Honey, it don't look good
Baby, you can't run round
Just anybody in the neighborhood

Someone else's dishes
Someone else's window
Someone else's engine
Underneath someone else's radio

I know what they told you
'Cause I've seen the way that they do
I'm sick of the hard way
I'm gonna walk right up to you
Tell you, honey

Baby, you can't run round
Honey, it don't look good
Baby, you can't run round
Just anybody in the neighborhood

Go on and take my midnight
Go on and take it down
Go on, give it away, baby
To the stranger, you are livin' for
What stranger are you livin' for, now?

Baby, you can't run round
Honey, it don't look good
Baby, you can't run round
Just anybody in the neighborhood

Baby, you can't run round
Honey, it don't look good
Baby, you can't run round
Just anybody in the neighborhood
