Lyrics
DON"T MIND LIVIN' ALONE
Words and Music by Ervin R. Maynard
==============================
I don't want nobody waiting on the porch
When I get home.
Nobody calling up her mama
On my telephone
I've got it good, Baby
Here on my own
Don't think I'm lazy
Petrified or crazy
Just because, I don't mind livin' alone
I don't want nobody
Wantin' to stay
When I'm ready to go
Nobody hoping for Yes
When it's got to be No
I like it now, Baby
Here on my own
Don't think I'm only
Lyin' cuz I'm lonely
Me, Myself and I don't mind livin' alone
So don't come creepin'
And messin' with my good thing
I've seen the damage
That your kind of
Sneaky actions can bring
I've seen the perfume, the pearls,
And the powder puff
So take back your strudel
Your quiche, and your poodle
(So save all the drama for your
Mama's Dali Lama)
Baby, I've had enough
Don't need nobody closing
Up the kitchen
When I want some cake
Nobody tellin' me to give
When I want to take
Leave me alone, Baby
Here on my own
To burst your bubble
I don't need your kind of trouble
I don't need no help
Because I don't mind livin' alone
