Don’t You Tell Me Lyrics
Slipping and sliding like a bear on thin ice
I know I can make it without your advice

Don’t you tell me
Don’t you tell me what for
Don’t you tell me
Don’t you tell me no more

I’m a big boy now
Believe me I know
How to live my life contentedly

You talk as much as I will allow
Babe I really don’t wanna row
But you’re strangling the life outta me

Crashing and falling is a cross we all bear
For me it’s as natural as breathing air

Don’t you tell me
Don’t you tell me what for
Don’t you tell me
Don’t you tell me no more

No I won’t be beat
I can stand the heat
My skin’s as thick as a crocodile’s

You can forget all about defeat
I can stand on my own two feet
And I’ll carry on for a million miles

Slipping and sliding like a bear on thin ice
I know I can make it without your advice
Refrain
Don’t you tell me
Don’t you tell me what for
Don’t you tell me
Don’t you tell me no more

Don’t you tell me
Don’t you tell me what for
Don’t you tell me
Don’t you tell me no more
