Cash, Johnny - It Ain't Me Babe Lyrics






Go away from my window
Leave at your own chosen speed
I'm not the one you want, babe
I'm not the one you need
You say you're lookin' for someone
Who's never weak but always strong
To protect you and defend you
Whether you are right or wrong
Someone to open each and every door

But it ain't me, babe
No, no, no, it ain't me, babe
It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe

Go lightly from the ledge, babe
Go lightly on the ground
I'm not the one you want, babe
I'll only let you down
You say you're lookin' for someone
Who'll promise never to part
Someone to close his eyes for you
Someone to close his heart
Someone to die for you and more

But it ain't me, babe
No, no, no, it ain't me, babe
It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe

You say you're lookin' for someone
To pick you up each time you fall
To gather flowers constantly
And to come each time you call
And will love you for your life
And nothin' more

But it ain't me, babe
No, no, no, it ain't me, babe
It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe

  75. B.... ....

    Wonderful song love the lyrics!

  76. M.... C....

    Thrash song boiii

  77. V.... V....

    I'm also a huge fan of them both....songs with such meaning and related to real true love written with their hearts, sung from their hearts.
    lots of memories flood back, so do my crybaby tears?
    ironic tho, acting in guest appearances on TV shows I've seen, Johnny Cash always played the bad guy?
    --on Little House/Prairie he impersonated a Reverend and ripped off the townsfolk of Walnut Grove. tsk tsk Johnny, ...
    Tsk Tsk!
    (he made nice in the end though)
    --Just one more 4 now, he was also bad guy on Colombo!? how COULD he? this time, not so nice ending for Mr Cash unless ya like fatty, unidentifiable slimy bologna sandwiches for the length of your stay in Club Fed?
    RIP to that haunting, magical voice! June, prayers go out as well to you and your what seemed to be endless talent with lyrics and your flawless angelic voice.

  78. I.... D....

    Lil Wayne murdered this

  79. D.... D....

    I came here because of Lil Wayne

    D.... D....

    Good for you.

  80. M.... K....

    207 people don't know good music

  81. C.... C....

    Thank you Johnny, thank you June, I am so happy that this song exists, one of the pleasures of being alive.

  82. C.... S....

    #MarriageGoals

  83. C.... N....

    This is the most meaningless, shitty version of this song. Bob Dylan never meant it this way, and I love Johnny, but FUCK NO.

    C.... N....

    who the fuck are you to decide what Bob Dylan would do? What pretentious, ignorant millennial you are, to even think that you could tell ANYONE what Bob or Johnny are thinking. Bob and Johnny collaborated on this version before it was ever played in public, so that show what WTF you know, which is nil... and shows just how shitty your flippant, Styrofoam taste in music really is. Shame on you... I'm feeling generous, so I'm gonna give you 3 little gems of advice to help you from behaving like a fuktard online...m'kay? #1 stop passing your dribble off s fact- it makes you look fukng stupid. #2 Stop pretending you know anything about either of these 2 legends or what they think... and #3 Stop licking catshit, it's rotting your mind.

  84. M.... S....

    It's amazing how only Johnny cash could take other people's songs and make it sound like his own he is by far the best musician singer ever and I know bob Dylan is proud of this

  85. B.... ....

    I saw people saying they liked the "Walk the line" Version better......I respectfully told them they were wrong and should feel bad because of it. Nothing like the REAL Johnny Cash and June Carter

  86. A.... B....

    This is for every bastard cold caller ☎️ like ever 😂✋🏼💥

  87. J.... O....

    This was and still is mine and my mums song just listened to this 6 months after she passed and for the first time I'm smiling thinking of my queen miss u mom

  88. S.... S....

    Go 'way from my window
    Leave at your own chosen speed
    I'm not the one you want, babe
    I'm not the one you need
    You say you're lookin' for someone
    Who's never weak but always strong
    To protect you an' defend you
    Whether you are right or wrong
    Someone to open each and every door
    But it ain't me, babe
    No, no, no, it ain't me, babe
    It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe.

    Go lightly from the ledge, babe
    Go lightly on the ground
    I'm not the one you want, babe
    I will only let you down
    You say you're lookin' for someone
    Who will promise never to part
    Someone to close his eyes for you
    Someone to close his heart
    Someone who will die for you an' more
    But it ain't me, babe
    No, no, no, it ain't me babe
    It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe.

    Go melt back in the night
    Everything inside is made of stone
    There's nothing in here moving
    An' anyway I'm not alone
    You say you're looking for someone
    Who'll pick you up each time you fall
    To gather flowers constantly
    An' to come each time you call
    A lover for your life an' nothing more
    But it ain't me, babe
    No, no, no, it ain't me, babe
    It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe.

  89. J.... X....

    It was written by Bob Dylan so it makes sense. :-) Applies to alot of us actually

  90. J.... J....

    I played this song as I was breaking up with my bf today and basically said we never had a song so this is it.... it ain't me babe !! Goodbye!

  91. D.... ....

    Go away from my window
    Leave at your own chosen speed
    I'm not the one you want, babe
    I'm not the one you need
    You say you're lookin' for someone
    Who's never weak but always strong
    To protect you and defend you
    Whether you are right or wrong
    Someone to open each and every door

    But it ain't me, babe
    No, no, no, it ain't me, babe
    It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe

    Go lightly from the ledge, babe
    Go lightly on the ground
    I'm not the one you want, babe
    I'll only let you down
    You say you're lookin' for someone
    Who'll promise never to part
    Someone to close his eyes for you
    Someone to close his heart
    Someone to die for you and more

    But it ain't me, babe
    No, no, no, it ain't me, babe
    It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe

    You say you're lookin' for someone
    To pick you up each time you fall
    To gather flowers constantly
    And to come each time you call
    And will love you for your life
    And nothin' more

    But it ain't me, babe
    No, no, no, it ain't me, babe
    It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe

  92. B.... H....

    I'm not the one you want babe I'm not the one you need.
