Get Off My Back - Canned Heat

I don’t want nobody tellin me what to do

It’s true, I don’t need anyone around here telling me what to do

I don’t want no man tellin me what to say, or smoke

I don’t need any man telling me what to say

And I wish that man would get off my back

He’s held me down too long

And I don’t need no man like that around

I remember one time you knocked me down

To the ground, that’s why I say

I didn’t know then what I know now, mama you

When I visit my baby we’re not alone

You’re there, you listen

When I talk to my baby on the telephone

When I write her a letter you read it through

Checkin me out, you’ve even heard us

Making love and I don’t want you to

I had a dream when I was a boy

The???

were clear and poor

And all that I could hear and see

Were the waves of the ocean and the spray in the breeze

Long ago and far away, before all the rest

I had a dream that I still loved the best

And to the place, where the man ain’t found

I’m going

I’m going, I’m going where the man ain’t found

Yes I am

Yes I am, yes I am

Going, I’m going where the man ain’t found

I’d like to go where the man ain’t found

If the man ain’t found he won’t find me, if I do something wrong
