Tracy Nelson - The Best Of Tracy Nelson/Mother Earth

I Don't Do That Kind of Thing Anymore

Don't come to me
Down and out and lonely
Say you want me to be your one and only
I used to try to keep things secure
By taking care of all your needs and soothing all your fears

I don't want to be your mother
And I hope you understand
If I cling to the little boy
I'll lose the man

And I don't want (I don't want)
I don't want (I don't want)
I don't want (I don't want)
Whoa, I don't want (want)

I don't want (I don't want)
I don't, I don't (I don't want)
I don't want (I don't want)
Whoa, I don't want (want)
I don't want (I don't want)
That kind of thing anymore

Don't ask me to carry all your burdens
I've got my own to shoulder
And now that I'm older, I've learned to save my strength
To fight my own fights
I don't know, baby, I've grown older

And I don't do (I don't do)
I don't do (I don't do)
I don't do (I don't do)
I don't do

Whoa, I don't do (I don't do)
I don't, I don't (I don't do)
I don't do (I don't do)
Whoa, I don't do

I don't want (I don't want)
I don't, I don't (I don't want)
Whoa, I don't want (I don't want)
Whoa, I don't want

I don't want (I don't want)
I don't, I don't (I don't want)
I don't want (I don't want)
Whoa, I don't want (want)

I don't want (I don't want)
I don't, I don't (I don't want)
I don't want (I don't want)
I don't want

I don't want (I don't want)
I don't, I don't (I don't want)
Whoa, I don't want (I don't want)
I don't want
I don't want (I don't want)
That kind of thing anymore
