LEAVE MY DREAM ALONE
(Warner McPherson)




Warner Mack - 1969










Leave my dream alone
Get you a little lover of your own
Stop messin' 'round where you don't belong
You better leave my dream alone


I been a-watchin' your big flirty eyes
How they water when my baby walks by
I ain't a-takin' to your way of thinkin'
Whlie you're checkin' out my beehive


I seen your kind so many times
How they strike and then they're gone
Now I ain't a-teasin', quit messin' with my pleasin'
And leave my dream alone


Leave my dream alone
Get you a little lover of your own
Stop messin' 'round where you don't belong
You better leave my dream alone


(Instrumental Break)


Now I got plans for me and my sweety
And, buddy, they don't include you
Listen to me talkin', you better start walkin'
'Cause I ain't no kind of fool


I love my honey like a thief loves money
And a hound dog loves his bone
So, you better part, quit messin' with my heart
And leave my dream alone


Leave my dream alone
Get you a little lover of your own
Stop messin' 'round where you don't belong
You better leave my dream alone


Stop messin' 'round where you don't belong
You better leave my dream alone
