You Rope You Tie Me Up - Joan Armatrading

Don't stand in my way, let me pass, easy

Don't try to block, trip or check me baby

No counter action gonna handicap me baby

You know I'm traveling light, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

You're a lion in my path, in my light, 'scuse me

Don't upset, don't embarrass me baby

Don't show your body, your body don't make it

You know I'm moving on right, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

You know we started out good

We were in love with all the world

All of a sudden, it was out of control

I started to lie because you couldn't see the truth

Oh, woah, woah, what a sad world

You get too jealous, you patronize me

Let me get away

You get too jealous, you drive me crazy

Let me get away, let me get away

Don't stand in my way, in my light, 'scuse me

You get too jealous, you patronize me

You get too jealous, you drive me crazy

You get too jealous, you rope, you tie me

You get too jealous, I need to be free

Let me get away, let me get away

You know we started out good

We were in love with all the world

And all of a sudden, it was out of control

I started to lie because you couldn't see the truth

Let me get away, I'm trying to get away
