Story Behind 

"I got a call one day from Jon Peters, who was managing Barbra Streisand at the time. He said, ‘I want you and Barbra to do a duet.’ While I was extremely flattered, I said, ‘Our voices and styles couldn’t be more different. I’ll try my best to see if I can write something, but right now I just can’t imagine it.’ Within the hour, I went to the piano. I sat down and I had to yell for someone to bring me a yellow legal pad and a pencil because I thought, If I get up and leave the piano, it’s going to go away! ‘Make No Mistake, He’s Mine’ wrote itself in that next two hours." - Kim Carnes

"Make No Mistake, He's Mine" reached No. 8 on the US AC Chart. Later, Kenny Rogers and Ronnie Milsap's version topped the US Country Chart and won the Grammy Award for Best Country Vocal Performance Duet.

Don't call him up anymore

'Cause I don't wanna hear your voice

I don' t wanna see your face

Answer his door

Make no mistake he's mine

He's mine, he's mine

He only knows how I feel

I only know what he's like

When he needs me

Oh, how he needs me

Deep in the night

Make no mistake, he's mine

He's mine, he's mine

Don't get too close when you dance

'Cause I don't wanna hear from my friends

You were out on the town

There in his arms

(There in his arms)

There in his arms

(There in his arms)

Don't include him in your dreams

(I wanna be in his dreams)

'Cause I don't wanna close my eyes

(My eyes)

I don't wanna know where he goes

Each night when he leaves

Make no mistake

(Make no mistake)

He's mine (he's mine)

He's mine (he's mine)

He is mine

Don't call him up anymore

Don't call him up anymore
