10. That Ain't Why (3:35)
You can try to bleed me while you put yourself in hock
You can dig into my jugular vein drinking up every drop
You can throw whatever you got at everything I made
You'll be on the coals while I'm just cooling off in the shade
That ain't why
I win and you lose
That ain't why
You're struggling, struggling, man
That ain't why
I'm the one that they choose
I'm the guy
Who's running it, running it, running it, running it, running it
You pretend to be what everybody knows you're not
I don't know why you keep hanging around hoping that they forgot
You play like an outlaw but you're just a common thief
Hardly worth my breath but I'm just choking in disbelief
That ain't why
I win and you lose
That ain't why
You're struggling, struggling, man
That ain't why
I'm the one that they choose
I'm the guy
Who's running it, running it, running it, running it, running it
Baby get a life of your own
Maybe then you'll leave me alone
Baby get a life of your own
Maybe then you'll leave me alone
Baby get a life of your own
Maybe then you'll leave me alone
Baby get a life of your own
Maybe then you'll leave me alone
Baby get a life of your own
Maybe then you'll leave me alone
Baby get a life of your own
Maybe then you'll leave me alone
Baby get a life of your own
You can dig into my jugular vein drinking up every drop
You can throw whatever you got at everything I made
You'll be on the coals while I'm just cooling off in the shade
That ain't why
I win and you lose
That ain't why
You're struggling, struggling, man
That ain't why
I'm the one that they choose
I'm the guy
Who's running it, running it, running it, running it, running it
You pretend to be what everybody knows you're not
I don't know why you keep hanging around hoping that they forgot
You play like an outlaw but you're just a common thief
Hardly worth my breath but I'm just choking in disbelief
That ain't why
I win and you lose
That ain't why
You're struggling, struggling, man
That ain't why
I'm the one that they choose
I'm the guy
Who's running it, running it, running it, running it, running it
Baby get a life of your own
Maybe then you'll leave me alone
Baby get a life of your own
Maybe then you'll leave me alone
Baby get a life of your own
Maybe then you'll leave me alone
Baby get a life of your own
Maybe then you'll leave me alone
Baby get a life of your own
Maybe then you'll leave me alone
Baby get a life of your own
Maybe then you'll leave me alone
Baby get a life of your own
