I wasn't born to be a soldier,
I wasn't born to be a sailer, no
Or a tinker or a tailor, no
I was born to be a fool
I wasn't born to be a lover,
I wasn't born to be a fighter, no
I was born to be a writer though
My pen is mightier than you
Honey, I ain't got the time,
Honey, I ain't got the inclination,
Honey, I ain't gotta line,
Honey, I ain't got no information,
Honey, that's the likes of love
Honey, that's the likes of love
I wasn't born to be a doctor
I wasn't born to be a lawyer, no
I don't think I'll ever make much gold
But what I make I'll keep for you
I wasn't born to be a cowboy
I never made it to the rodeo,
All I got here is this one man show,
Maybe someday we'll make it two,
Honey, I ain't got the time,
Honey, I ain't got the inclination,
Honey, I ain't gotta line,
Honey, I ain't got no information,
Honey, that's the likes of love
Honey, that's the likes of love
