"Can't Let You Do It" lyrics

"Can't Let You Do It"

Well, you got some high class, baby, steppin' all over me
With your high tone and your blue line respectability
You go down on the corner, having yourself a ball
Changed the way you live and I don't know you at all

I can't let you do it
I can't let you do it to me
I know you're gonna do it
But I can't let you do it to me

If the sun don't shine no more and the blue sky don't appear
If the rainfall don't fall no more, I really don't think you'd care
You got so wrapped up, baby, in everything you do
Been putting on the dog, you know, and I mean you

I can't let you do it
I can't let you do it to me
I know you're gonna do it
But I can't let you do it to me

If you don't shut down, Miss Banquet, if you don't shut down real soon
Gonna find yourself out on the street looking for another room
You've seen me on the corner, having myself a ball
Gonna change my way of living and you won't know me at all

I can't let you do it
I can't let you do it to me
I know you're gonna do it
But I can't let you do it to me
