Lyrics The Turtles

The Turtles

Tie Me Down

I'll be leavin' with the mornin' sun

My girl's tellin' me that I'm the one

She hears weddin' bells, it's time to run

She's tryin' to tie me down

No one's gonna tie me down

Folks keep tellin' me to plant my roots

Find a job and buy some mohair suits

Just 'cause everybody else commutes

They're tryin' to tie me down

No one's gonna tie me down

I can't help it

If I feel like the wind in the trees

It would shift

And I'll be driftin' and go where I please

I'll be leaving with the mornin' dew

Won't stop runnin' 'til my days are through

And if I happen to meet up with you

Don't try to tie me down

No one's gonna tie me down

And if I happen to meet up with you

Don't try to tie down

No one's gonna tie me down

Tie me down

No one's gonna tie me down

Tie me down

No one's gonna tie me down

Tie me down
