You cannot be the same as me, girl, you know,
You will find it works that way, you will find it works that way.
There is no sayin' what is right, wrong, you know,
But you don't like gettin' hurt, but you don't like gettin' hurt.

Why don't you stand right by my side, said the man,
But don't look back, back at me, but don't look back, back at me.
Protect yourself from all things bad, said the man,
Don't include me as being one, don't include me as being one.

Just as much, as is good, I would like, if you would,
Hey, you know, it's all right, hey, you know, it's all right.

You cannot be the same as me, girl, you know,
