[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm a lover, not a fighter
'Cause I'm a lover, not a fighter
'Cause I'm a lover, not a fighter
And I'm really built for speed
Built for speed
[Verse 2]
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 caddy go
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm a lover, not a fighter
'Cause I'm a lover, not a fighter
'Cause I'm a lover, not a fighter
And I'm really built for speed
Built for speed
Built for speed
Woah, yeah
[Verse 3]
Well I can roar like a lion, I can sting like a bee
But sometimes I think, baby, I've got rabbit blood in me
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm a lover, not a fighter
'Cause I'm a lover, not a fighter
'Cause I'm a lover, not a fighter
And I'm really built for speed
Built for speed
Built for speed
Woah, yeah
