Lyrics
What makes you think she'll go with you
Questioning the assumption that she would choose the listener over someone else
What makes you think you're better than me
Challenging the belief of superiority over the speaker
You think you can read her mind
Skepticism about the ability to understand her thoughts
Maybe you're just looking for a good time
Suggesting the possibility that the person is seeking a casual relationship
Maybe you can give her more
Questioning if the other person can provide more for her
Tell me what you're doing this for
Seeking an explanation for the other person's actions
Stay away from her,
Warning to stay away from her
Cause it's making me angry
Expressing anger due to the interference
Don't tell me how to love my baby
Repetition emphasizing the speaker's autonomy in loving their partner
Don't tell me how to love my baby
-Don't tell me how to love my baby
-Don't tell me how to love my baby
-She belongs to me
Assertion that she belongs to the speaker
You come around looking for kicks
Accusing the other person of seeking excitement
But I know all about your dirty tricks now
Knowledge of the other person's deceptive actions
You think you took away my dream
Belief that the other person has thwarted the speaker's aspirations
Ain't gonna be easy 'cause I get real mean
Warning that dealing with the speaker can be challenging
Get out of here, get out of my life
Command to leave and stay out of the speaker's life
You're gonna be sorry if we have to fight
Anticipating regret if a conflict arises
Stay away from her,
Reiteration to stay away from her
Cause it's making me angry
Expressing increased anger due to continued interference
Don't tell me how to love my baby
Repetition emphasizing the speaker's autonomy in loving their partner
Don't tell me how to love my baby
-Don't tell me how to love my baby
-Don't tell me how to love my baby
-She belongs to me
-Don't tell me how to love my baby
-Don't tell me how to love my baby
-Don't tell me how to love my baby
-Don't tell me how to love my baby
-Don't tell me how to love my baby
-Don't tell me how to love my baby
-Don't tell me how to love my baby
-Don't tell me how to love my baby
-She belongs to me
Final affirmation that she belongs to the speaker
She belongs to me
-She belongs to me
