I don't want nobody I'm better off alone
I'm sworn to independence my heart is made of stone
But you're breaking on through oh there's somethin' bout you
I've been tapping my toes to the way you talk
And I've been singing along to the way you walk
I've got to do somethin' bout you

Well I've got this place of mine it's nice and quite and I like it fine
I work real hard got no time for you
But I've whiskied up my coffee cup sittin' here tryin' not to call you up
It's gettin' to where I don't know what to do
Oh there's somethin' bout you
[ guitar ]
Something about you like distant thunder and I can't say I ain't been warned
But there's no shelter to crawl under ever gonna save me from this storm
Oh there's somethin' bout you I can't shake
There's somethin' 'bout you that's been keeping me awake
The whole night through oh there's somethin' bout you

Well I've got this life of mine it's nice and quite and I like it fine
I work real hard got no time for you
But I've whiskied up my coffee cup sittin' here tryin' not to call you up
It's gettin' to where I don't know what to do
Oh there's somethin' bout you babe somethin' bout you
