"NOT MY TYPE" Copyright 2017 M.Healey

Seven years together
I said, "You should be my wife"
She said I'll think it over
I'll let you know to-night
When I got home that evening
Saw a letter in the light
Dear John I love you honey
But you're just not my type

Not my type
You're not my type
When I'm thinkin' I can't lose
The opposite comes true
That line will haunt my life
You're not my type
You're not my type

Saw some ladies on the corner
Posing under a red light
Wearing mini skirts and fishnets
Boots reaching to the thigh
So I flashed me a Benjamin
Hoping hook would take a bite
But they laughed into my face
Sayin' you ain't no one's type

Not my type
You're not my type
When I'm thinkin' I can't lose
The opposite comes true
That line will haunt my life
You're not my type
You're not my type

Tried an online dating service
Gave the info didn't lie
I checked that thing for weeks
Didn't get...not one reply
I'm resigned to be a bachelor
Mr. Right? I ain't that guy

Not my type
You're not my type
When I'm thinkin' I can't lose
The opposite comes true
That line will haunt my life
You're not my type
You're not my type

Still there's a chance someday
I may hear someone say
Hey I think you're ok
Even though....
You're not my type

Not my type-you're not my type-
That line will haunt my life
What's that mean anyway?
Not my type!
Huh....
