Just Passing Through

Don't get excited, honey
Don't make a fuss
Don't get no fancy ideas
Don't go planning on us
And don't you complain
That my heart's not set on you
'Cause honey
I was just passing through

Don't leave no message
Don't sit by the phone
Don't ask me no favors
And honey, don't give me none of your own
And don't you go thinking
That my heart's not set on you
But honey
I was just passing through

Even if I was untired
Or I call you up late
Don't worry, your sweet fiddle's mine
'Cause I'm set in these straits
Ain't makin' no promise
That I can't validate
Don't think I'm arriving
'Cause I'm only surviving, so

Don't take no trouble, honey
Don't waste your time
Don't you compete in your toes
And don't go standing on mine
And don't you go thinking
And don't you go thinking
That my heart's not set on you
But honey
I was just passing through

Just passing through

And just 'cause I kissed your sweet lips
And I held you so tight
Don't go telling your friends
That everything is alright
I can't go sneaking around
Like a thief in the night
Don't you start believin'
'Cause soon I'll be leaving, so

Don't get those misty eyes
Don't ask me why
Don't try to stop me from going
But don't tell me goodbye
And don't you go thinking
That my heart's not set on you
But honey
I was just passing through

I was just passing through
I was just passing through
