I'm Not Built That Way Songtext / Lyric

(George Teren/Don Pfrimmer)



I am not a devil



I am not a saint

You can't tell if the wood is good

By looking at the paint

It's not that I don't love you

Some words are just hard for me to say

I wish I was a poet

But honey I'm not built that way



I know someone hurt you

But that's all in the past

He was one to hit and run

But I dont' work like that

I'm gonna take forever

To finish what we started here today

I just cant' lie about it

Honey I'm not built that way






I'm built to go the distance

Solid as a rock

I climb all my mountains to the top

I won't' run for cover

Even when our sunny skies turn gray

Honey I'm not built that way

Saying it is one thing proving it takes time

But the thought that I don't love you

Should never cross your mind



I'm built to go the distance

Solid as a rock

I climb all my mountains to the top

I won't' run for cover

Even when our sunny skies turn gray

Honey I'm not built that way

Saying it is one thing proving it takes time

But the thought that I don't love you

Should never cross your mind



Built that way

I'm not built that way
