about

thoughtful words from a stubborn woman

lyrics

Talkin’ I Won’t Marry Ya Blues



If you wanna have a hand in anything with me

Just know this all I wanna be is free

You can hold my heart, pick me up

But if you’re thinkin marriage, then the gig is up

I’ve had my share of being stuck

So I’d leave you where you’re standing like a droopy eyed pup, no regrets from me

Cause boy do I love running



I don’t intend to be mean or unkind

But know this darlin, you can’t change my mind

For If you love me any at all, why do we gotta get the government involved?

Cause Uncle Sam’s a deadbeat foe

All he’s ever done is build a desolation row

And There’s no dowry that comes with me..maybe a bit of instability,

I’m an angry woman at best



Now love is a power and love is a force

But if you like marriage you better like divorce

One day we could tie the knot, next thing you know you’ve taken all I’ve got

All my time and dignity, Left in domesticity

Look at allll those odds, if you got eyes, cause I don’t like my chances, too wild



So then Keep your step up with mine, cause of you’re laggin then I’m leaving you behind

Cause I talk strong, so if you talk soft

I’m callin this whole damn love thing off

Call me a crook, call me a bitch,

call me your darlin I don’t care which

But you can call me a survivor,

survivor of no good love that is,

I’ll meet you on the tarmac,

let’s see if you can catch me
