Go Away Lyrics by The Coathangers

Larceny & Old Lace

2011

[Verse 1]
I thought I told you, baby, I won't ask
Where you been and why you talkin’ so fast
Do what you want and leave me alone
I'm not the kind to sit and wait by the phone
[Pre-Chorus]
And you try (to be the one)
And you try (to be the one)
And you try, but you just can't see
And you try (to be the one)
And you try (to be the one)
And you try, but you’re not for me
[Chorus]
Hey
You like it when I stay
But I want you to go away
Go away
Hey
I like it when you stray
'Cause I don't want you every day
Every day
[Verse 2]
You flex your muscle, you got somethin' to prove
You keep hoping that I'm fallin' for you
Do what you want and leave me alone
You keep on askin', but I'm not gonna go
[Pre-Chorus]
’Cause you try (to be the one)
And you try (to be the one)
And you try, but you just can’t see
And you try (to be the one)
And you try (to be the one)
And you try, but you're not for me
Just close your eyes and dream of me
[Chorus]
Hey
You like it when I stay
But I want you to go away
Go away
Hey
I like it when you stray
’Cause I don't want you every day
Every day
[Outro]
Hey
I like you, go away
I like you, go away
I like you, go away
