Cash Johnny It Ain`t Me Babe Lyrics

It Ain`t Me Babe Lyrics

Written by Bob Dylan 

 (As performed by Johnny & June Carter Cash) 

 

 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 and defend you

 Whether you are right or wrong

 Someone to open each and every door

 

 CHORUS:

 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'll only let you down

 You say you're lookin' for someone

 Who'll promise never to part

 Someone to close his eyes to you

 Someone to close his heart

 Someone to die for you and more

 

 REPEAT CHORUS

 

 You say you're lookin' for someone

 To pick you up each time you fall

 To gather flowers constantly

 And to come each time you call

 And will love you for your life

 And nothin' more

 

 REPEAT CHORUS
