Don't tell me lyrics
by Van Halen



It's okay, I'll do what I want if I choose
I can take the fall, there's a choice
It's my destiny in my hands
Yeah, it's up to me

I can drive
I can shoot a gun in the streets
Score me some heroin

I can jump
Be the sacrifice
Bear the cross just like Jesus Christ

And I don't wanna hear what love can do
No, I ain't gonna tell ya what's right for you

I've seen the damage done
Down with the shotgun
Don't stop the setting sun on my kingdom come
Oh!

Is it right to take the easy way?
I don't know, I get on my knees and pray
Now I'm saved by a higher voice
Givin' up, givin' up, givin' up my choice

If I'm wrong, hey, then I'll pay for it
If I'm right, yeah, you're gonna deal with it
'Cause I tried, yeah, I tried for it
I'll try, I'll try, even die for it

No, I don't wanna hear what love can do
No, I, I can't tell you what's right for you
Oh, I, I, I tell you what love can do
No, I, I, I can't say but your time is through

I've seen the damage done
Oh, Lord, I've heard the shotgun
I fought the setting sun on my kingdom come
Oh!

Oooh
Heyeyey!
Oooh
Heyeyey!

Don't tell me what love can do
Heyeyey!
