| Lyrics: | Written by: John Mellencamp and Larry Crane
Office girls, they pass me by.
They
don't know my name.
Put me on the danger list,
just too wild to tame.
Take the
drinks off of the table.
Throw my guitar out the door.
Set my sights on some new
sunrise.
Help my feet to the floor.
CHORUS
I ain't lookin' for
affection.
I guess I need myself a shove.
Give me someone I can look up to.
Show me
someone I can love.
Good boys go to heaven,
good girls say their
prayers.
Me, I don't say anything at all.
I hope the Big Man still cares.
Touch
my soul with your religion.
Cut my throat with your spite.
Hurt me with your silence,
girl.
Stay with me, stay with me, stay with
me tonight.
CHORUS
I ain't
lookin' for affection.
I guess I need myself a shove.
Give me someone I can look up
to.
Show me someone I can love.
Don't go starin' at me.
Makes me feel so
insecure.
Talk behind my back if you want to.
I don't hear no more.
Take me to
my destination.
Put me on the plane.
Fly me up to heaven, dear Lord.
Take me home
again.
CHORUS
I ain't lookin' for affection.
I guess I need myself a
shove.
Give me someone I can look up to.
Show me someone I can love |
