(Verse 1)

I saw you today

Had nothing to say

I just looked on by right on my way

Your precious smile

I threw it right back

It wasn't mine this, I know for a fact

(Chorus)

Why would you, why would you

Leave me alone?

Why would you, why would you

Leave me alone?

Why would you, why would you

Leave me alone?

I wanna get up on my own

(Verse 2)

I went to the store

To buy me some meats

I grabbed a box of shredded wheat

And through the shelf I saw your face

Why must you follow me every place?

(Chorus)

Why would you, why would you

Leave me alone?

Why would you, why would you

Leave me alone?

Why would you, why would you

Leave me alone?

I wanna get up on my own

(Guitar Bridge)

(Verse 3)

I decide to move

Have to get away

To a distant island in Hanalei

My friends are a party

To get me boom! (Boom, boom, boom, boom)

But you were there again why won't you leave me alone?

(Chorus)

Why would you, why would you

Leave me alone?

Why would you, why would you

Leave me alone?

Why would you, why would you

Leave me alone?

I wanna get up on my own
