Id Rather Be Alone by Thornetta Davis Lyrics
[Spoken Intro]
Here you come again, messin' with my head
Well, you've been gone so long, I thought you was dead
And just when my heart healed from losing you
Well here you come knockin' at my door, giving me your excuse
Well it's too late baby, I don't need you no more
And as you can see that key in your head don't unlock my door
So before you come in here, telling me what you're going through
I think I've got some news for you
[Chorus]
I'd rather be alone than be lonely with you
Said I'd rather be all myself than take the hurt you put me through
I'm tired of living this lie now, you know it just ain't no use
'Cause when I give you all my love boy
All you can give me is the blues
[Verse 1]
Go on away, little boy
Why don't you just let me be
Stop coming by my house, baby
Stop calling and hanging up on me
I had finally given up on you
Got my life back on track
But then here you come again now baby
When you telled me you wouldn't be back
[Chorus]
I'm gonna tell you once again boy
Since you ain't got a clue
Well I'd rather be alone baby (all by myself)
Then be lonely with you
[Verse 2]
Said I'd finally given up on you
Got my life back on track
Then here you come again now baby, yah
You telled me you wouldn't be back, no, no
[Chorus]
I'm gonna tell you once again boy
Since you ain't got a clue
Well I'd rather be alone baby (all by myself)
Then be lonely with you, hey yeah
Said, I'd rather be alone baby, all myself
Then be lonely with you, hey yeah
[Outro]
Rather be alone baby
All by myself now
Then be lonely with you boy
I could do better by myself
I could do better by myself, baby
But I'm going to do it by myself, baby
Then be lonely with you baby
[Spoken Outro]
Now don't get that twisted, that don't mean I'm by myself
Matter of fact, I got company right now
And I don't think he'd like you coming in here looking all good
But I'm so glad to see you doing so well, brother
Cut the shit
Bye bye
