Old 97's
"No Baby I"

The lights were low, but I was lower
The radio was playing somewhere else
The room was full of surface tension
I was only thinking 'bout myself

No baby I, no baby I
No baby I don't want to see you hurt
You got them tears, they fall like pearls
Blame it on gravity, yeah
Blame it on being a girl

The room was full of undertakers
Movers and martini shakers gone
The reaper left at seven thirty
Took off in a taxi with a blonde

The difference between us
Is way down on the inside
It's very tricky business

No baby I, no baby I
No baby I don't want to see you hurt
You got them tears, they fall like pearls
Blame it on gravity, yeah
Blame it on being a girl

Blame it on gravity, yeah
Blame it on being a girl

Here's a toast to no good Friday
I was bound to do it my way, wrong
Strumming on a telecaster
Sing it like a trained disaster song

The difference between us
Is way down on the inside
It's very tricky business

No baby I, no baby I
No baby I don't want to see you hurt
You got them tears, they fall like pearls
Blame it on gravity, yeah
Blame it on being a girl

Blame it on gravity, yeah
Blame it on being a girl
