Driven two step swing with a rockin' edge to it- twang with attitude

Ruby Dee Philippa- lyrics and music, vocals, backing vocals
Jorge Harada- orchestration, guitars

I don’t need a man to take care of me
I’m done with you just as quick as can be
When I call, you better be gone
Cause it ain’t so bad I’m moving on
What you hear is what I’m saying,
I don’t need a man honey, I ain’t playing

Men like you I’ve plenty of
And when it comes to the push and shove
You’ll back down and then you’ll retreat
That’s why I’m walking off down this street
What I’m saying is what you get
I don’t need a man honey, that’s a fact

CHORUS:
Can’t nobody tell me what to do
And if you try I’ll put the hurt on you
And when I’m done you’ll wish you had too
Kept your big mouth shut, don’t need a man like you!

All the little girls primp and the big girls preen
What they’re after is a to be seen
A looking for that nuptial day
Hell you won’t catch me that good ol’ way
What you hear is what I’m saying,
I don’t need a man honey, I ain’t playing

I’ve everything I need to survive
A house and job and lust for my life
What I ain’t got, I don’t need you to give
Cause it ain’t so bad this a will to live
What I’m saying is what you get
I don’t need a man honey, that’s a fact

CHORUS - SOLO
V1- CHORUS - OUT
