I'm Not Like Everybody Else

I won't take all that they hand me down
Make out a smile, though I wear a frown
I'm not gonna take it all lying down
'Cause once I get started I go to town

I'm not like everybody else
I'm not like everybody else
I'm not like everybody else
I'm not like everybody else

And I don't want to ball about like everybody else
And I don't want to live my life like everybody else
Yeah, I ain't hanging up the fight like everybody else
'Cause I'm not like everybody else
I'm not like everybody else

Darling, you know that I love you true
I'd do anything that you want me to
Confess all my sins like you want me to
There's one thing that I will say to you

I'm not like everybody else
I'm not like everybody else
I'm not like everybody else
I'm not like everybody else

And I don't want to ball about like everybody else
And I don't want to live my life like everybody else
I won't give up the fight
'Cause I'm not like everybody else
I'm not like everybody else

Like everybody else
Like everybody else
Like everybody else
Like everybody else

If you all want me to settle down
Slow up and stop all my running round
Do everything like you want me to
There's one thing that I will say to you

I'm not like everybody else
I'm not like everybody else
I'm not like everybody else
I'm not like everybody else

And I don't want to fuck around like everybody else
And I don't want to live the life like everybody else
I won't be going home tonight
'Cause I'm not like everybody else
I'm not like everybody else

Like everybody else
Like everybody else
Like everybody else
Like everybody else
