Backseat Driver Lyrics by Richie Sambora

Aftermath of the Lowdown

2012

The door was open it was quarter to five
When you walked into my house
With a look on your face like you own the place
When you sat down on the couch
You tried to rearrange the furniture, rearrange my life
Change what I'm all about
You grabbed my remote, like I didn't have a vote
Took the keys and locked me out
I don't care what you say
I don't care how you feel
I ain't never gonna be who you want me to be
Ain't giving up the wheel
There's no denying
Baby I'm done with your backseat driving
Say what you wanna say
It really don't matter to me, no
I'm tired of trying
Walking away from satisfying you
Do what you wanna do
It really don't matter to me
Don't really matter to me
Living life wasn't such a fight
Until you came along
I never thought I was always right
But with you I'm always wrong
I wish that you could you only hear
The way it's coming out of you mouth
You just a-talk talk talk you keep spitting it out
But you don't know what you're talking about
I don't care what you say
I'm only here for the ride
I ain't never gonna be who you want me to be
And I never gonna try
There's no denying
Baby I'm done with your backseat driving
Say what you wanna say
It really don't matter to me, no
I'm tired of trying
Walking away from satisfying you
Do what you wanna do
It really don't matter to me
Don't really matter to me
[Solo]
I don't care what you say
I don't care how you feel
I ain't never gonna be who you want me to be
Ain't giving up the wheel
There's no denying
Baby I'm done with your backseat driving
Say what you wanna say
It really don't matter to me, no
I'm tired of trying
Walking away from satisfying you
Do what you wanna do
It really don't matter to me, no
There's no denying
Baby I'm done with your backseat driving
Say what you wanna say
It really don't matter to me, no
I'm tired of trying
Walking away from satisfying you
Do what you wanna do
It really don't matter to me
Don't really matter to me
Don't really matter
Don't really matter to me
Backseat driver
Backseat driver
Backseat driver
Backseat driver
Backseat driver
Come on!
