Daryl Hall - I Wasn’t Born Yesterday lyrics

Lyrics by D. Hall, S. Allen

I forgot just how to feel

City scene ain't no big deal

Soul deep

So Jah say

None of that takes my breath away

Oh I always seem to see

Both sides when they disagree

And neither one seems right

Too much city life

Is messin' with my inner lite

And everybody's too cool to believe

I Wasn't Born Yesterday

You should know by now

So let's set the record straight

And we can carry on

I wasn't Born Yesterday

I'll find out

I ain't innocent

Lots of room for me to doubt

I never learned to cry

So far so extreme

If I'm jaded, you're naive

But behind that cynic's steady gaze

There's a wide-eyed lover drunk for days

Oh I don't want to be

One of those guys who only sees

The joke behind the lie

Too much city life

May I don't know wrong from right

But baby I ain't too cool to believe

I Wasn't Born Yesterday

I don't die for love

Just let the record speak

Then I carry on

I wasn't Born Yesterday

I don't die for love

It's never too late to come of age

Never too late

Oh I wanna learn to cry
