Aow
Hoo-hoo
I don't care what you talkin' bout, baby
I don't care what you say
Don't you come walkin' beggin' back mama
I don't care anyway
Time after time I gave you all of my money
No excuses to make
Ain't no mountain that I can't climb, baby
All is going my way
('Cause there's a time when you're right)
(And you know you must fight)
Who's laughing, baby?
Don't you know
(And there's the choice that we make)
(And this choice you will take)
Who's laughin', baby?
So, just leave me alone
(Leave me alone, leave me alone)
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
(Leave me alone, leave me alone, leave me alone)
Leave me alone
Stop it!
Just stop doggin' me around
There was a time I used to say, "Girl, I need you"
But who is sorry now?
You really hurt, you used to take and deceive me
Now who is sorry now?
You got a way of making me feel so sorry
I found out right away
Don't you come walkin' beggin' I ain't lovin' you
Don't you get in my way
('Cause there's a time when you're right)
(And you know you must fight)
Who's laughing, baby?
Don't you know
(And there's the choice that we make)
(And this choice you will take)
Who's laughin', baby?
So, just leave me alone
(Leave me alone, leave me alone)
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
(Leave me alone, leave me alone, leave me alone)
Leave me alone
Stop it!
Just stop doggin' me around
('Cause there's a time when youre right)
(And you know you must fight)
Who's laughing, baby?
Don't you know
(And there's the choice that we make)
(And this choice you will take)
Who's laughin', baby?
So just leave me alone
(Leave me alone, leave me alone)
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
(Leave me alone, leave me alone, leave me alone)
Leave me alone
Stop it!
Just stop doggin' me around
(Leave me alone, leave me alone)
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
(Leave me alone, leave me alone, leave me alone)
Leave me alone
Stop it!
Just stop doggin' me around
Don't come beggin' me
Don't come beggin'
Don't come lovin' me
Don't come beggin'
I love you
I don't want it
I don't
I don't
I don't
I, I, I, I
Aaow
Don't come beggin' me
Don't come beggin'
Don't come lovin' me
Don't come beggin'
I love you
I don't want it
I don't need it
I don't
