lyrics

One Of The Boys
Tom Ward

You're born without a crystal ball.
It's a miracle to see at all.
But I don't need my eyes to see
The games that you would play on me.
If there's something there for me and you,
You can't have your cake and eat it too;
So bite the bullet, babe, it's time to choose.

You'll have to give up all the old games,
Toss that list of one-night stand names.
You know I'll never be just one of the boys.
You'll have to be content with one man,
Happy holding on to one hand;
You know I'll never be just one of the boys.

Habits die hard, they're tough to break,
But that's the deal I'm here to make.
I love you girl but let's be fair,
I'm not a man who likes to share.
I'm not about to stand in line
When there's plenty other fish to fry.
So what's it gonna' be? You're outa' time.

You'll have to give up all the old games,
Toss that list of one-night stand names.
You know I'll never be just one of the boys.
You'll have to be content with one man,
Happy holding on to one hand;
You know I'll never be just one of the boys.

I'm not askin' much, you gotta' know;
It's the only way that we can run this show.
See it from my point of view:
Fate won't intervene to help us through;
It's the only, only chance for me and you.

You'll have to give up all the old games,
Toss that list of one-night stand names.
You know I'll never be just one of the boys.
You'll have to be content with one man,
Happy holding on to one hand;
You know I'll never be just one of the boys.


I’m not one of the boys, no, not one of the boys,
Never be just one of the boys.
