I'm a Lover Not a Fighter

The Kinks · Kinks [1964]

Well I met a pretty girl, as pretty as can be

I thought she was my baby till she introduced to me

A great big tall fella, about six foot tall

I shivered and I shook, couldn't do any more



'Cause I'm a lover not a fighter

Yes, I'm a lover not a fighter

Yes, I'm a lover not a fighter

And I'm really built for speed

Built for speed



Well, some people think I'm lazy but there's one thing they don't know

'Cause when I'm in the mood I can go cat go



'Cause I'm a lover not a fighter

Yes, I'm a lover not a fighter

Yes, I'm a lover not a fighter

And I'm really built for speed

Built for speed

Built for speed

Whoa yeah



Well I can roar like a lion, I can sting like a bee

But some times I think, baby, I've got rabbit'spunk in me



'Cause I'm a lover not a fighter

Yes, I'm a lover not a fighter

Yes, I'm a lover not a fighter

And I'm really built for speed

Built for speed

Built for speed

Whoa yeah
