Different Drum Lyrics - Singles - Me First And The Gimme Gimmes

You and I travel to the beat of a different drum 

Oh, can't you tell by the way I run? 

Every time you make eyes at me, oh 

You cry and moan and say it will work out 

But honey child, I've got my doubts 

You can't see the forest for the trees 

So, don't get me wrong, it's not that I knock it 

It's just that I am not in the market 

For a boy who wants to love only me, yeah 

Yeah and I ain't saying, you ain't pretty 

All I'm saying is, I'm not ready 

For any person, place or thing 

To try to pull the reins in on me 

So goodbye, I'll be leavin' 

I see no sense in crying and grieving 

We'll both live a lot longer 

If you live without me 

So, don't get me wrong, it's not that I knock it 

It's just that I am not in the market 

For a boy who wants to love only me, yeah 

Yeah and I ain't saying, you ain't pretty 

All I'm saying is, I'm not ready 

For any person, place or thing 

To try to pull the reins in on me 

Yeah, alright, alright 

Yeah, yeah, yeah
