I'm Not Built That Way

(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
