Don't Misunderstand Me Lyrics - John Mellencamp

I bring you renegade stories 

And you tell me I'm crazy and wild 

You say that I lack maturity 

Stop actin' like a child 

But you know I am a liar 

And my promises only get in my way 

You feel so good, when you're in my arms 

Ain't there one right thing I can say 

To make oyu want to stay

Listen To Taylor Swift's New Song 'Call It What You Want' 

[Chorus:] 

Oh, oh baby, baby 

Don't misunderstand me 

Oh, oh baby, baby 

You tell me that you love me but 

This ain't no way for you to live 

You hold so tight your fingers are broken 

I take more than I care to give 

But it's heartbeat to heartbeat 

It's push and shove and steal and prove 

It's hand to mouth sometimes 

If we run hard enough someday baby 

Gonna find some room to move 

[Chorus]

All of this showin' and provin' 

Is nothing but fear 

Everybody can do what they want 

But they just can't do it here 

Girl hold on to my childishness 

I'm gonna break on through 

Out of this mess 

[Chorus]
