Lyrics
You don't need me
I don't need you
(repeat)
I'm tired of wondering about you
I'm tired hearing about all you do
You say it's all just a lie
You say I've no right to criticize
But, I see you walking around town
Shaking that thing around
You don't need me
I don't need you
You walk in with your fancy clothes and your nose held to the sky
I'm finished being your fool, so "good bye"
So Keep your Jacket on
Keep your jacket on, baby
I'm tired of making amends
I'm tired of hearing from all my friends
About your sneaking around
About your sleeping all over town
I'm done defending your ways
I'm done praying for better days
You don't need me
I don't need you
You walk in with your fancy clothes and your nose held to the sky
I'm finished being your fool, so I bid you "good bye"
Keep your Jacket on
Keep your jacket on, baby
Just turnaround
Go home, girl
Don't let the door hit you on the way out
