Don't Get Me Wrong lyrics

(Rafferty/Egan)

I can tell by your expression that theres something in the air
You think Im holdin out on you, you think that I dont care.

(chorus)
Oh no, dont get me wrong, I wouldnt want to hurt you.
And maybe times I come on strong; its only self-defense.
I cant deny that sometimes I appear so cold and heartless,
Then you become suspicious cause you cant make any sense out of me.

Every time we talk now it just ends up in a fight,
It starts off in the morning and it goes on through the night.

(chorus)

You say that Im a stranger, and you dont know me anymore,
And I try not to listen cause Ive heard it all before.

(fiddle solo)

Tell me what it is you want and Ill make it all come true,
Cause I can't talk to anyone if I cant talk to you.

(chorus)

Oh, no, dont get me wrong...
Oh, no, dont get me wrong...
