Boy if you wanna real love
You got a lot to learn
I used to think your heart was made of gold
But your actions got the real story told
Working overtime on my heart on my mind
Boy you made a fool out of me
You know what to say
Tell me what I wanna hear
When it's time to show
You're never there baby
I'm not the kinda girl
You can let down and kick around
When it comes to love
What you give is what you get
Hook 2 times
Never been naive but in you I did believe
You were the perfect one for me
Being fooled in love is a dangerous game
One hell of a price to pay
Your ego was fed, by me the misled
You only wanted to use me instead
I'm not the kinda girl
You can let down and kick around
When it comes to love
What you give is what you get
Hook 2 times
You know what to say
Tell me what I wanna hear
When it's time to show
You're never there baby
I'm not that kinda girl
You can let down and kick around
When it comes to love
What you give is what you get
Your ego was fed, by me the misled
You only wanted to use me instead
I'm not the kinda girl
You can let down and kick around
When it comes to love
What you give is what you get
I'm not the kinda girl
You can kick around
I'm not the kinda girl
You can just let down
I'm not the kinda girl
You can kick around
I'm not the kinda girl
Da, da, da, da, da
Hook 2 times
I'm not the kinda girl
You just kick around
I'm not the kinda girl
You just let down
Hook
