Yeah, you get off of my back, baby 
Can't you tell you're choking me 
Oh I ain't no pony, baby 
Can't you tell you're choking me 
Yeah, you just get off of my back, baby 
Can't you see you're hurting me 

Well, I don't mind helping you, baby 
Every now, now and then 
Yes, you ain't helped yourself, baby 
Since God knows when 
So you just get off of my back now, baby 
Can't you see you're hurting me 

Yes, I'm standing here telling you, baby 
This is the end of the line 
Yes, I'm tired of you riding me, baby 
I declare I ain't lying 
So you just get off of my back, baby 
Can't you see you're hurting me 

Well, you get off, get off, get off, baby 
'Cause you're a heavy, heavy load 
Yes, you can catch yourself 
Another ride, baby 
Somewhere further down the road 
You just get off, get off, baby 
Can't you see you're hurting me
