You Don't Have To Do That

(albüm: Nobody Knows What You Do - 1976)

Now why you got to spend all that time in front of the mirror?
And why you got to spend all that time trying on clothes?

You don't have to do that
You don't have to do that

You're beautiful, and you'll always come through
Like Buddy Emmons when he plays his steel guitar

Why you got to get all them jams, jellies, and preserves?
And why you got to smear them on your face right before you come to bed?

You don't have to do that
You don't have to do that

You're beautiful and you'll always come through
Like Benny's going to do after me and Mack sing the bridge

Now, I wish you wouldn't worry, and let it all hang down
I wish you wouldn't worry, that I won't be around

Well, your judgment gets a little strange when your looking in the mirror
There're certain things you just can't see 'cause you're not a man (and that's a good thing)

No, you don't have to do that
You don't have to do that

You're beautiful and you'll always come through
Like Sam playing on his mandolin
