I don't care what you talkin' 'bout baby
I don't care what you say
Don't you come walkin' beggin' back mama
I don't care anyway
Dime after dime, I gave you all of my money
No excuses to make
Ain't no mountain that I can't climb baby
All is going my way

'Cause there's a time when you're right
And you know you must fight
Who's laughing baby, don't you know
And there's the choice that we make
And this choice you will take
Who's laughin' baby?

So just leave me alone
Leave me alone (leave me alone)
Leave me alone
Leave me alone (leave me alone, leave me alone, leave me alone)
Leave me alone (leave me alone) stop it!
Just stop doggin' me around

There was a time I used to say, "Girl I need you"
But who is sorry now?
You really hurt, you used to take and deceive me
Now who is sorry now?
You got a way of making me feel so sorry
I found out right away
Don't you come walkin', beggin', I ain't lovin' you
Don't you get in my way

'Cause there's a time when you're right
And you know you must fight
Who's laughing baby, don't you know
And there's the choice that we make
And this choice you will take
Who's laughin' baby?

So just leave me alone
Leave me alone (leave me alone)
Leave me alone
Leave me alone (leave me alone, leave me alone, leave me alone)
Leave me alone (leave me alone) stop it!
Just stop doggin' me around

'Cause there's a time when you're right
And you know you must fight
Who's laughing baby, don't you know, girl
And there's the choice that we make (that we make, and, that we make, and)
And this choice you will take
Who's laughin' baby?

So just leave me alone, girl
Leave me alone (leave me alone)
Leave me alone
Leave me alone (leave me alone, leave me alone, leave me alone)
Leave me alone (leave me alone) stop it!
Just stop doggin' me

Leave me alone (leave me alone, leave me alone)
Leave me alone
Leave me alone (leave me alone, leave me alone, leave me alone)
Leave me alone (leave me alone) stop it!
Just stop doggin' me around

Don't come beggin' me
Don't come beggin'
Don't come lovin' me
Don't come beggin'
I love you
I don't want it
I don't, I don't, I don't, I
Don't
Don't come beggin' me
Don't come beggin'
Don't come lovin' me
Don't come beggin'

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
