Don't Call Me Baby

Verse 1: I met you at the diner, Friday night at nine, You flashed that smile, I thought it was a sign. Leather jacket, slicked-back hair, you looked so fine, But don’t you dare call me baby, boy, get in line. Chorus: Don’t call me baby, I’m not your toy, I’m not some sweetheart for a lovestruck boy. I’ve got my rhythm, I’ve got my own beat, So don’t call me baby, get off my street. Verse 2: We danced all night to the jukebox tune, Under the neon lights, beneath the moon. You whispered sweet things, made my heart swoon, But don’t call me baby, you’re changing too soon. Chorus: Don’t call me baby, I’m not your toy, I’m not some sweetheart for a lovestruck boy. I’ve got my rhythm, I’ve got my own beat, So don’t call me baby, get off my street. Bridge: You think you’ve got me, wrapped around your thumb, But honey, listen close, I’m not that dumb. I’ve been around, seen a thing or two, So don’t call me baby, I’m not falling for you. Verse 3: I’m a wildcat, I’m a rolling stone, I walk my path, I go it alone. Don’t need no lover to call my own, So don’t call me baby, leave me on my throne. Chorus: Don’t call me baby, I’m not your toy, I’m not some sweetheart for a lovestruck boy. I’ve got my rhythm, I’ve got my own beat, So don’t call me baby, get off my street. Outro: So here’s the story, and here’s the deal, I’m not your baby, I’m real as real. Find another girl who fits your wheel, But don’t call me baby, that’s how I feel.
