Not You, Girl

I won’t climb that fence
I won’t scale that wall
I will not get on my knees and crawl
Not for you, girl (not for you)

I will do my part
I will say my piece
And then I’ll just leave you in peace
That’s for you, girl (that’s for you)

Yes, you are pretty
Yes, I want you bad
But, no, I won’t give you all that I have
Not to you, girl (not to you)

I see you daily
I think of you now
But to you, girl, I will not bow
Not to you, girl (not to you)

I’ve seen all the hurt
I’ve felt all the pain
This, time, I won’t be left out in the rain
Not with you, girl (not with you)

Please, come closer now
Let me see your face
I’ll keep your memory in a special place
Just for you, girl (just for you)

Give you what I can
But please don’t demand
And I won’t listen to your silly reprimand
Not for you, girl (not for you)

I’m not up for sale
I’m not up for rent
My heart has been broken after it was bent
But not by you, girl (not by you)
