you don't pick me up when you put her down
don't say those things about her
it won't help me now
i don't want to hear about girls you've known
they had warm lips, pretty faces
and hearts of stone

Chorus:
she wasn't one of the hurting kind
she wouldn't love you then change her mind
i don't forgive her for what she's done
but don't say she was, she wasn't one

i don't mean to snap at you
when you're trying to help
no, i really wouldn't rather be by myself
just don't tell me she
was like some of them girls
wearing all the hearts she's broken
like strings of pearls [chorus]

Bridge: one of them girls
who never has a reason for the things she does
one of them girls
she wasn't one so don't say she was
[bridge/ chorus]
