Dolly Parton and Joan Jett & the Blackhearts - I Hate Myself For Loving You

Hey Joan, don't you just hate it
When you love somebody so much
You just let them treat you anyway they want to
(Sure do, Dolly)
(Makes me hate myself)
Yeah, and I hate it when I hate myself
Well, you wrote a song about it
Grab your guitar and let me sing along with you
Let's go, girl

Midnight, gettin' uptight, where are you?
You said you'd meet me, now it's quarter to two
I know I'm hangin' but I'm still wantin' you
Hey Jack, it's a fact they're talkin' in town
I turn my back and you're messin' around
I'm not really jealous, don't like lookin' like a clown
I think of you every night and day
You took my heart and you took my pride away

(I hate myself for lovin' you)
I hate myself (can't break free from the things that you do)
Can't break free (I wanna walk but I run back to you)
(That's why I hate myself for lovin' you)

Daylight, spent the night without you
But I've been dreamin' 'bout the lovin' you do
I'm over being angry 'bout the hell you put me through
Hey, man, bet you can treat me right
You just don't know what you was missin' last night
I wanna see you begging, say forget it just for spite
I think of you every night and day
You took my heart and you took my pride away

I hate myself for lovin' you
Can't break free from the things that you do
I wanna walk but I run back to you
That's why I hate myself for lovin' you

I hate myself
For lovin' you
I think of you every night and day
You took my heart and you took my pride away

(I hate myself) for lovin' you
(Can't break free) from the things that you do
(I wanna walk) but I run back to you
I hate myself for lovin' you

I hate myself for lovin' you
Can't (I can't) break free from the things that you do
I wanna walk but I run back to you
That's why I hate myself for lovin' you

I hate myself (why can I not get loose?)
For lovin' you
I hate myself (I keep runnin' back to you)
For lovin' you
I hate myself (why do I keep holdin' on?)
For lovin' you
I hate myself (I hate myself, I hate myself, I hate myself)
For lovin' you
