Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, I remember when you used to look so good
And I did everything that I possibly could for you
We used to ride around all over town
But they're puttin' you down for bein' around with me
[Verse 2]
But you can go ahead if you want to
'Cause I ain't got no papers on you
[Verse 3]
In the middle of the summer, I had a job bein' a plumber
Just to fast forward to fall, it was you I wanna ball all day
And when we walkin' along, honey, hand in hand
I'm a-thinkin' of you, mama, when you thinkin' of another man
[Verse 4]
But you can go ahead if you want to
'Cause I ain't got no papers on you
No, I don't, I ain't got no papers on myself
[Verse 5]
All alone on the bone when I didn't have a home
When I found out where I was
Then I knew where I was supposed to be
I was twitchin' so I turned and it's really hard to learn
That everyone I saw was just another part of me
[Verse 6]
But you can go ahead if you want to
'Cause nobody's got no papers on you
No there, it's just a falsehood
