Lyrics for Song: It Ain't Me, Babe
Lyrics for Album: Another Side Of Bob Dylan
Go away from my window
Leave at your own chosen speed
I'm not the one you want babe
I'm not the one you need
You say you're lookin' for someone
who's never weak but always strong
to protect you and defend you
whether you are right or wrong
Someone to open each and every door
But it ain't me, babe
no, no, no it ain't me, babe
it ain't me youre lookin' for, babe
Go lightly from the ledge, babe
Go lightly on the ground
I'm not the one you want, babe
I'll only let you down
You say you're lookin' for someone
who'll promise never to part
someone to close his eyes for you
someone to close his heart
Someone who will die for you and more
But it ain't me, babe
no, no, no it ain't me, babe
it ain't me you're lookin' for, babe
Go melt back in the night
Everything inside is made of stone
there's nothing in here moving
And anyway, I'm not alone
you say you're lookin' for someone
who'll pick you up each time you fall
to gather flowers constantly
and to come each time you call
a lover for your life and nothing more
but it ain't me babe
no, no no it aint me babe
it ain't me youre lookin for babe

It Ain't Me, Babe
Bob Dylan's 1964 recording of 'It Ain't Me, Babe' stands as a defining moment in his transition from folk to rock and roll. Released on the album 'Another Side of Bob Dylan,' the track features a driving rhythm section and electric instrumentation that marked a pivotal shift in his musical direction. The song explores themes of heartbreak and the futility of trying to change a lover's mind, delivered with a cool, detached demeanor that became a signature of his later work. Its raw energy and lyrical depth helped propel Dylan into the mainstream consciousness, influencing countless artists across genres. As one of his most recognizable hits, the recording remains a cornerstone of his discography, celebrated for its blend of personal vulnerability and rock-and-roll swagger. |
