I’m Not the One Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I've been tried, and I've been tested
I was born tired, I never got rested
Harder than marble stone
I'm better off, better off left alone
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm not the one, no I'm not the one
You wanted it all, but I give you, give you none
No, I'm not the one
[Verse 2]
Well, like a toy, to a kid
I said jump, and, mama, you did
And you know, your daddy knows and your mama knows that's wrong
So now it's time for me to move on
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm not the one, no I'm not the one
A-you wanted it all, but I give you, give you none
I'm not the one
[Interlude]
No, oh no-ah
Ah nah, nah, nah
No, oh no-ah
I'm not the one
I've been tried, and I've been tested
I was born tired, I never got rested
Harder than marble stone
I'm better off, better off left alone
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm not the one, no I'm not the one
You wanted it all, but I give you, give you none
No, I'm not the one
[Verse 2]
Well, like a toy, to a kid
I said jump, and, mama, you did
And you know, your daddy knows and your mama knows that's wrong
So now it's time for me to move on
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm not the one, no I'm not the one
A-you wanted it all, but I give you, give you none
I'm not the one
[Interlude]
No, oh no-ah
Ah nah, nah, nah
No, oh no-ah
I'm not the one
[Verse 3]
You think that I'm normal
All these years I'm just tryin' to warn ya
You'd do good to move on
No it won't, it won't hurt me none
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm not the one, no I'm not the one
But you wanted it all, but I give you, give you none
'Cause I'm not the one, no I'm not the one
[Outro]
Yeah, oh-oh-oh
No-oh, I'm not the one
Uh, not the one, for you
Not the one, oh, not the one
You think that I'm normal
All these years I'm just tryin' to warn ya
You'd do good to move on
No it won't, it won't hurt me none
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm not the one, no I'm not the one
But you wanted it all, but I give you, give you none
'Cause I'm not the one, no I'm not the one
[Outro]
Yeah, oh-oh-oh
No-oh, I'm not the one
Uh, not the one, for you
Not the one, oh, not the one
