I just can't lie about it
Songwriters: Donald R. Pfrimmer, George Terren
Some words are just hard for me to say
And I won't run for cover
And I won't run for cover
Gonna take forever

I wish I was a poet
Even when our sunny skies turn gray
I climb all my mountains to the top
Should never cross your mind
Even when our sunny skies turn gray
He was one to hit and run but I don't work like that
Not built that way
I'm not built that way
I know someone hurt you that's all in the past
To finish what we started here today
Saying it is one thing
But the thought that I don't love you
Honey, I'm not built that way
Can't tell if the wood is good by looking at the paint
Honey, I'm not built that way
No, no, no
Honey, I'm not built that way
It's not that I don't love you
I climb all my mountains to the top
I'm built to go the distance, solid as a rock
Honey, I'm not built that way
Proving it takes time
I am not a devil, I am not a saint
I'm built to go the distance, solid as a rock
