Every now and then on my way home I stop at a spot where the wild flowers grow And I pick a few, 'cause she don't tell me to I go out with my boys all right Most of the time I call it a night Before they do, 'cause she don't tell me to Sunday mornin', I'm in church and my butt and my back And my necktie hurts, but I'm in the pew, she don't tell me to Any other woman I know would have tried To control me and it would be over Blame it on my "goin' my own way" attitude All of that stubbornness melts away When I wake with her head on my shoulder And I know I've got to love her until my life is through 'Cause she don't tell me to I got demons and I've got pride But when I'm wrong, I apologize Like she's mine to lose, 'cause she don't tell me to Well, I got dreams in this heart of mine But nothin' that I wouldn't lay aside If she asked me to But she don't tell me to And she don't even know that she keeps me lookin' for The next right thing to do 'Cause she don't tell me to, yeah, yeah Any other woman I know would have tried To control me and it would be over Blame it on my "goin' my own way" attitude All of that stubbornness melts away When I wake with her head on my shoulder And I know I've got to love her until my life is through What else can I do? What else can I do? Oh, I love her 'Cause she don't tell me to She don't tell me to Every now and then, on my home I stop at a spot where the wild flowers grow And I pick a few, yes, I do
