It Ain't Me
S.S.A. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're Daddy's little girl
Born with a silver spoon
I could tell somebody told you
You hung the moon
You look so good I had to look the other way
You need a man that'll do everything you say

[Chorus]
I know baby what you need
I know baby what you need
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
It ain't me

At first you were different
Actin' like the shy type
You blew it baby you blamed it on the wine
I should have known that was the beginning of the end
But I took you back baby you did it all over again

[Chorus]

You don't think I'd leave you standing in the rain
Girl you think my love for you it'll never change
Oh, no, no, no
It used to be enough drinkin' from your lovin' cup
But tonight it's really over
So shut up and get out of my truck

I know baby what you need
I know baby what you need
I know baby what you need
Yeah I know baby what you need
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah




Yeah, yeah
It ain't me

Overall Meaning

He can’t help but feel drawn to her beauty but understands that she needs a man to do everything for her. The chorus emphatically states that he knows what she needs, but it isn't him.


The second verse shows a change in the girl's persona; she starts acting differently from how she was before, and actions that leave a sour taste in the singer's mouth. He gives the girl another chance, but she repeats the same behavior, and it ends with a breakup. The girl thinks she has a charmed life, and the singer is telling her that he knows what she needs, but it isn't him.


The song's theme touches on the differences in class and culture, which influences people's judgment and behavior towards others. The singer tries to be with the girl but realizes that he can't change her, and his love for her did not blind him to her true personality, leading to the realization that he deserves better.

Lyrics:
I had a dream we were sippin' whiskey neat
Highest floor, The Bowery, nowhere's high enough
Somewhere along the lines we stopped seein' eye to eye
You were stayin' out all night and I had enough
No, I don't wanna know where you been or where you're goin'
But I know I won't be home, and you'll be on your own
Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the mornin'?
Who's gonna rock you when the sun won't let you sleep?
Who's wakin' up to drive you home when you're drunk and all alone?
Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the mornin'?
It ain't me (The Bowery)
(Whiskey neat, grateful, I'm so grateful, I)
It ain't me (The Bowery)
(Whiskey neat, grateful, I'm so grateful, I)
It ain't me (The Bowery)
It ain't me (The Bowery)
(Whiskey neat, grateful, I'm so grateful, I)
It ain't me
I had a dream, we were back to 17
Summer nights and The Libertines, never growin' up
I'll take with me the Polaroids and the memories
But you know I'm gonna leave behind the worst of us
Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the mornin'?
Who's gonna rock you when the sun won't let you sleep?
Who's wakin' up to drive you home when you're drunk and all alone?
Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the mornin'?
It ain't me, no, no
It ain't me, no, no
It ain't me, no, no
Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the mornin'?
It ain't me (The Bowery)
(Whiskey neat, grateful, I'm so grateful, I)
It ain't me (The Bowery)
It ain't me (grateful, I'm so grateful, I)
Ah, ooh (The Bowery)
Ah, ooh (whiskey neat, grateful, I'm so grateful, I)
Ah, ooh (it ain't me, The Bowery)
Ah, oh (whiskey neat, grateful, I'm so grateful, I)
It ain't me (The Bowery)
(Whiskey neat, grateful, I'm so grateful, I)
It ain't me, na, na, na, na-na, The Bowery
Na, na, na, na-na, whiskey neat (grateful, I'm so grateful, I)
It ain't me

Isn't it crazy when sometimes we listen to a song that we haven't heard in a long time and remember exactly what life was like at that moment? Nostalgic.
