Rodney Crowell
Anybody’s Darlin’ (Anything But Mine)
[Verse 1]
I treat him like a stallion
I treat him like a lamb
I treat him like a pot of gold
He treats me like a clown

[Verse 2]
It's daggers when he looks at me
Bullets when he speaks
Evil how he calls on me
Pretending that he's so weak

[Chorus]
He'll be anybody's darling
He'll be anything but mine

[Verse 3]
He needs me, but only to hold his hand
He don't like being alone
He holds me, but not like a lover can
He wants me, but not like I am

[Chorus]
He'll be anybody's darling
He'll be anything but mine
[Bridge]
He's got all new friends, Hollywood has-been
Better off than other people in this world
There are fools to follow him, rearranging him
Changing everything I hoped that I might save
Always just another rainy day away

[Verse 4]
He's clever, such a chosen face
Striking at even a glance
So gracious, but only with what he wants
He's lucky, but only by chance

[Chorus]
He'll be anybody's darling
He'll be anything but mine
He'll be anybody's darling
He'll be anything but mine
He'll be anybody's darling
He'll be anything but mine
He'll be anybody's darling
He'll be anything but mine
He'll be anybody's darling
He'll be anything but mine
He'll be anybody's darling
He'll be anything but mine
He'll be anybody's darling
He'll be anything but mine
