Rosanne Cash - I Don't Know Why You Don't Want Me Lyrics

Still love this song in 2020. I can definitely relate👍👌Always one of my Favorites🥰❤

What a knockout she was!!!! And that voice!!!

Reminds me of when i was young and in love.... with Rosanne, i mean. Those beautiful eyes! man, i still melt just seeing this vid!

SHIT !!!!! I would drink her bathwater !!!!

we all want you

sometimes a man you like just dont want a good woman

Always had a crush 😎

The answer is that love and desire cannot be forced. It either happens or it doesn't.

Just heard this song. Its actually excellent. Not really country. Just a great song.

I always saw her more of a pop rock artist than country. Still love to here her songs on the radio. What a presence she has long after her song is over, she was so underrated.

I love this lady's music, best country singer, and so beautiful. No wonder, Johnny's daughter.

Those are some of the hottest and sexIest looks i ever seen

Hey baby

Vince gill sing in background

For 3 minutes and 19 seconds in 1985 this was THE hottest chick on Earth. Fire. Ass. Hot.

One of a kind song. I know she said she wrote it for Nashville and the awards, but imagine this as a song where that other person you love so much just doesn't feel the same. We've all had one of those.

She's so talented and beautiful and great singer and still one of my favorite songs

I have always had a lust for brunettes. She can definitely raise any man's temperature rise and any man's heart pound. She is hot

I'd to think I should have married her. Ha.

she looks like a smokin hot jewish girl from the 80s

Johnny Cash singer part inherited in her shows up in this song to tell everyone that it's him, after being rejected for a nomination with the other song, and gets the award.

She has THE look! Love her!

Very talented and beautiful woman.

HER EYES ARE HER SECRET WEAPON
GREAT SONGWRITER. I RESPECT HER DAD SO MUCH. MY LIFE PARALLELS JOHNNY'S.I LISTEN TO " RHYTHM & ROMANCE" EVERY SINGLE DAY. MASTERPIECE

I ADORE THIS WOMAN. BEAUTUFUL, STRONG. TAKENTED
JUST LIKE MY LOANA.

Oha... You are the best 👍👍👍💕💕💕

Is Vince Gill doing the background vocals?

She is so HOT!!!!

It's like she's singing to me...

That moment when I stopped on CMT switching between MTV and VH1... <3

an absolutely beautiful song sung by an absolutely beautiful woman!

Love the song and ROSANNE CASH!

Love this song

The melody reminds me of another song, but I can't remember what it is. I want to say it's "Somebody's Baby" by Jackson Browne?

1984 -- wow -- 35 years ago --

Man she looks like a old girlfriend of mine in the 80's. Brings back some great memories.

This video made me fall head over heels for her many moons ago!

Great singer and gorgeous

never realized till just now, thats vince gill doing backup vocals. at least im pretty sure. sounds like em

There must be at least 12 guitars layered in this song.

Is It me or is that sound like Vince Gill in the background vocals?

It is Vince Gill on backing vocals.

She wrote this song about her father Johnny Cash who was not home much for her and her sisters. So happy they got close before he died. Great song.

you still take my breath away...the most beautiful woman on earth....wow

OMG...how gorgeous is she ?

Beautiful lady. Great vocalist!!!!! Yes she wasn't me baby. Come and let me love you. That was for a special man in Hendersonville, TN.

Great performance by another beautiful lady. Believe her dad would be proud.

I hear Vince Gill

Sounds like Mr. Vince Gill on backing vocals😁

Summer of 85 in the bronx. 🥰

In mid-1985, I was a-livin' in Throggs Neck.

This song was written right after she up for a lot at either ACM or CMA awards in Nashville. she left that night with her husband at the time Rodney Crowell without even 1 award or acknowledgement. On the way home they came up with this song. it went number 1

The legend Vince Gill on background vocals.

The background vocals sure sound like Vince Gill. Was that really him? His voice is pretty distinct.

Man this has got the 80's written all over it.

Ahh screw him I want you !

How GREAT IS THIS SONG?

I miss you so much Danny Lee Latham every time I listen to this song I remember you driving around with me and singing in your car on the radio. Just smiling 😊 and looking at me with those blue eyes 💙.

She wrote this song about losing the Grammy for best female country vocalist to Juice Newton 1982!

She may not have gotten the Grammy then, but she did get one for the singing of this song three years later and three more were also given to her five years ago. (smiles)
God bless you and Rosanne always!!!
Holly in East Tennessee

Lol I have been in love with this woman since I was 15 just loved her music

I could hazard a guess...

AWESOME ...

Listening to these (I think from "Seven Year Ache") for the first time in years. Knocked out, once again. Rosanne, girl...you're an awesome talent. A superb musician. And BREATHTAKINGLY BEAUTIFUL. What a babe ! If I knew how to find you, I'd drive to Nashville and throw myself at your feet Hold on, I'm comin'.

I Love her Music!!! I still play this CD in the Car!!!!!!

The 1980's....The best years of my life and didn't know it until it is far passed...makes me very sad to think of where the years have gone. I am sure I am not the only one who feels this way. This song and many others were great songs. What happened to the Real Country Music? Greed and new blood taking over what is being recorded/released. Every generation the format of country changes...better? Not in my eyes and ears.

Growing up, country music was always playing on the radio. I remember this song well. Beautiful woman and beautiful voice.

What happened to all the good music? What happened to MTV?. Where is all the good stuff that made my life happy? I know....the 80s ended. Sad

Love this song great female singer love her music ❤❤❤🇺🇸

She's so pretty, can write and sing.

,😀😀😀😀😀😀😀

If she wants some dick all she has to do is call

But I do want you..Dang she is gorgeous!!

Roseanne is an artist. And time marches on.

fantastic song and fantastically sung

I could listen to this song all day long

she is verry pretty

I love Her

Love me some Rosanne and Ronstadt.

she is so beautiful

We all know it's Vince Gill, Jesus you haven't unlocked some fkn mystery, shut the fk up

She’s so cute here & damn can this girl sing a country song!

The best!!!

Rosanne and Rodney Crowell were making great music back then.

God Roseanne you were so, so good looking. And of course a great singer, song writer.

I was only 2 years old and already in love with her 😍

Just saw Rosanne live in concert, she’s wonderful & one of the most underrated singers of all time.

Soulful. Reminds me of the 80s. Back when computers worked for us (and not the other way around) and when men could make a pass at a woman without risking a felony.

Gorgeous lady

hot as hell, minus the hair cut

Beautiful voice ,,Rosanne cash ,love this song ,,I dont know why you dont want me ,,,she is so sexy Beautiful too

She is her father's daughter for sure!!! One of the most beautiful female voices ever

Beautiful ,I Dont know why you dont want me ,,,Rosanne Cash ,,I wonder why you dont,,,

I was 18 in '85.....and I wanted you, Roseanne! Because of this song! I've been a fan ever since.
While my crush has passed over the year's, I still love this country classic! Roseanne is a talent equal to her Papa!

Country radio NEEDS to stop playing all the bro-country and add in 80s and 90s country to the mix. Songs like this will fit right in...and make the stations sound a LOT better. Rosanne is one heck of a singer-songwriter. :)

Sooo beautiful, she looks jus like her mom

She has a wedding band on and singing about somebody wanting her but love the song and Her.

Shes actually singing about a grammy award.

I think she wrote this after being passed up for a music award

...sexy 80s girl ;-))

wow!.......loretta, Tammy, Tanya and Martina all rolled into one....sing it girl.....

Vince Gill harmony vocals on this song is so VERY Pronounce

Vince Gill background vocals

Distinct and amazing voice... yet for years and years I didn't know it was him.

I thought it sounded very much like VG, I’m not surprised. A lot of awesome talent went into this track for sure.

It probably was Vince Gill singing the background vocals.

Ronnie Hoard Music Channel , it was he.

Cool. I like it.
