It Ain't Me Babe Lyrics - Flatt And Scruggs

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 looking for someone never weak but always strong 

To protect you and 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 looking 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 you down 

You say you're looking 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 and more but it ain't me, babe, no, no, no 

It ain't me, babe, it ain't me you're looking for, babe 

Go melt by into the night, babe, never thinkin' this side is made of stone 

There's nothing in here moving anyway I'm not alone 

You say you're looking for someone to pick you up each time you fall 

To gather flowers constantly and come each time you call 

I'll love you for your life and nothing more 

But it ain't me, babe, it ain't me you're looking for, babe 

(Hey)
