Anybody'S Darlin' (Anything But Mine)
Rosanne Cash


I treat him like a stallion
I treat him like a lamb
I treat him like a pot of gold
He treats me like a clown
It's daggers when he looks at me
Bullets when he speaks
Evil how he calls on me
Pretending that he's so weak

He'll be anybody's darling
He'll be anything but mine

He needs me
But only to hold his hand
Don't like being alone
He holds me
But not like a lover can
He wants me
But not like I am

He'll be anybody's darling
He'll be anything but mine

He's got all new friends, Hollywood has him
Better off for other people in this world
There are fools to follow him, rearrange him
Changing everything I hoped that I might save
Always just another rainy day away

He's clever,
Such a chosen face
Striking
At even a glance
So gracious
But only with what he wants
He's lucky
But only by chance

He'll be anybody's darling
He'll be anything but mine
He'll be anybody's darling
He'll be anything but mine
He'll be anybody's darling
He'll be anything but mine
He'll be anybody's darling
He'll be anything but mine
He'll be anybody's darling
