I Don't Need You Around

(album: Higher And Higher - 1967)

Baby, baby, baby, baby
I don't need you around
Because I've found somebody new
And I don't need you around, girl
To do the things that we used to do (Somebody new)

Somebody, somebody new has taken your place
And I'm real happy in her warm embrace
I don't need you around
I don't need you no more
Because I've found somebody new

Ooh, you walked out of my life
And you took all my loving
And left me nothing but emptiness, baby, in return
You left and called me a clown
And you know you haven't had to tell me
Baby, baby, baby
You know you've got a lot to learn

Well, I learned that I don't need you
And I don't need you around
'Cause I've found somebody new, somebody new
I said I learned that I do not need you
I don't want you around
Like I said, I've found somebody new (Somebody new)

Somebody new, somebody new has taken your place, girl
And you know, I'm so happy in her warm embrace
I don't need you, I don't need you
I don't need you around
'Cause I got me somebody new, yeah (Somebody new)

Somebody, somebody new has taken your place
Can you hear me now?
And you know what
I'm so happy in her warm, her warm embrace
I don't need you
I don't need you around
I've found somebody new
