Story Behind the SongNeighbor thinks I have done something and I don't know what's going on but I don't want to fight until I have to.
Lyrics
Title; I?m a lover, not a Fighter
VRS;1. Well my neighbor came over just the other night, Had a chip on his shoulder and he wanted to fight, You know me I never like to fight, It didn?t take me long to get out of sight
(chorus) Cause I?m a lover, not a fighter, I?m a lover, not a fighter, and you heard me right, I?d rather be loved any day than fight.
VRS;2. Well he finally decided that he couldn?t find a fight, He headed on home a little later that night, I slipped in when he got out of sight, I?m the kind of man that never wanted to fight,
(chorus) Cause I?m a lover, not a fighter, I?m a lover, not a fighter, and you heard me right, I?d rather be loved any day than fight.
VRS;3. Then three days later I was standing in the store, My neighbor pulled up in his beat up ford, He came in and he started a fight, I thought he?s gonna beat me half to death that night,
(chorus) Cause I?m a lover, not a fighter, I?m a lover, not a fighter, and you heard me right, I?d rather be loved any day than fight.
VRS;4. Then I finally got out from under his fist. The pain I was feeling I couldn?t resist, I jumped up and I stomped him in the floor, I bet he never want to mess with me no more,
(chorus) Cause I?m a lover, not a fighter, I?m a lover not a fighter and you heard me right, But sometimes even a lover?s got to fight.
VRS;5. Then the same thing happened just last night, My wife came home and she wanted to fight, You know me I never like to fight,
I took her in my arms I held her tight all night,
(chorus) Cause I?m a lover, not a fighter, I?m a lover, not a fighter, and you heard me right, I?d rather be loved any day than fight, I?m a lover not a fighter and you heard me right, I?d rather be loved any day than fight. I?m a lover, not a fighter, I?m a lover not a fighter and you heard me right, I?d rather be loved any day than fight. I?m a lover not a fighter and you heard me right,
