Different Drum

You and I travel to the beat
Of a different drum
Oh, can't you tell by the way I run
Every time you make eyes at me, wo-oh

You cry and moan and say
It will work out.
But, honey child, I've got my doubts
You can't see the forest for the trees

Oh, don't get me wrong
It's not that I knock it
It's just that I am not in the market
For a boy who wants to love only me

Yes, and I ain't sayin' you ain't pretty
All I'm sayin' I'm not ready
For any person place or thing
To try and pull the reins in on me

So, good-bye, I'll be leavin'
I see no sense in this cryin' and grievin'
We'll both live a lot longer
If you live without me

Oh, don't get me wrong
It's not that I knock it
It's just that I am not in the market
For a boy who wants to love only me

Yes, and I ain't sayin' you ain't pretty
All I'm sayin' I'm not ready
For any person place or thing
To try and pull the reins in on me

So, good-bye, I'll be leavin'
I see no sense in this cryin' and grievin'
We'll both live a lot longer
If you live without me
