Back Off, Honey

--[Intro] [spoken] Just a little reminder for the girl who needs it. --- [Verse 1] I saw your hand on his sleeve Like you already knew That look in your eyes, girl Said trouble was due You smiled like it’s harmless But I know that game You can borrow his attention You can’t wear my name [Pre-Chorus] I’m not here for a scene I’m just drawing the line You can flirt with the moment But he’s already mine So keep your little grin And your pretty little plans You’re about to learn quick He's a one-wumen man --- [Chorus] Back off, honey He’s my sweet home man Back off, honey You can’t hold his hand You can try that charm You can flash that smile But I’m standing right here And I’m staying awhile Back off, honey He’s my sweet home man (Back off, honey) --- [Verse 2] You can lean in closer You can call him “baby” too But he knows where he’s sleeping And who he goes home to I brought him Sunday supper And I know his favorite song You’re just passing through here I’ve been loving him this long --- [Verse 3] I’ve walked through storms with him, Held him up when times got tough. You’re chasing something shiny, But I know what we’ve got’s enough. So don’t mistake his kindness For something you can claim— He’s loyal as the sunrise, And he still says my name. --- [Verse 4] You can toss your hair and laugh, Try to make him lose his place, But he’s got that look he gives me— You’ll never get that face. I’ve danced through every season, I’ve stood beside that man, So take your little moment, ’Cause that’s all you’re gonna have. --- [Pre-Chorus] I’m not here for a scene I’m just drawing the line You can flirt with the moment But he’s already mine So keep your little grin And your pretty little plans You’re about to learn quick He's a one-wumen man --- [Chorus] Back off, honey He’s my sweet home man Back off, honey You can’t hold his hand You can try that charm You can flash that smile But I’m standing right here And I’m staying awhile Back off, honey He’s my sweet home man (Back off, honey) --- [Bridge] Go on, take your heels And your borrowed perfume I know what he wants And it won’t be you I don’t need a fight I just need you to see He’s not a prize on a shelf He belongs with me --- [Final Chorus] Back off, honey He’s my sweet home man Back off, honey You can’t hold his hand You can try that charm You can flash that smile But I’m standing right here And I’m staying awhile Back off, honey He’s my sweet home man (Back off, honey) Back off, honey He’s my sweet home man
