I don't want nobody, better off alone
I'm sworn to independence and my heart is made of stone
but you're breaking on through, something 'bout you.
I've been tapping my toes to the way you talk
I've been singing along when I watch the way you walk
I've got to do something 'bout you.
CHORUS: I've got this (place/life) of mine
It's nice and quiet and I like it fine
I work real hard, got no time for you
But I whiskied up my coffee cup
I'm sitting here trying not to call you up
And it's getting to where I don't know what to do
Something 'bout you.
Something about you like distant thunder
I can say I ain't been warned
But there's no shelter to crawl under
That's ever gonna save me from this storm.
Something 'bout you, I can't shake
There's something 'bout you
That's been keeping me awake
The whole night through
Something 'bout you.
