Well I don't tell jokes And I don't take notes You been sayin' There ain't much hope You got nothin' on me I got friends uptown And they don't talk down They be keepin' me safe and sound We got somethin' to be So in case you hadn't noticed I'm alright Not like it was before Things used to be so hopeless But not tonight Tonight I'm walkin' out that door I'm not gonna cry When wavin' goodbye And I know this time You got nothin' on me Well it ain't that tough Just more of the usual stuff One heartache is more than enough There ain't nothing to see Nothing I got friends uptown And they still come 'round They be keepin' me safe and sound We got somethin' to be So don't you try to save me With your advice Or turn me into something else Cause I'm not crazy And you're not nice Baby if you do Keep it to yourself I'm not gonna cry And I'm wavin' goodbye And I know this time You got nothin' on me. (No nothin' on me)
