Went down hard like it was the first time The last time that I fell No-one came to my corner No one rang the bell You can rip me off and run me out of town I’ve been torn to pieces, buried six feet down But I’m right here, I’m no pretender Against the wall there’s no surrender, just remember Built for stormy weather
It always comes out of nowhere Love is funny then it hurts like hell One day your cup is overflowing The next you’re digging a well It’s always hard to tell
You can rip me off and run me out of town I’ve been torn to pieces, buried six feet down But I’m right here, I’m no pretender Against the wall there’s no surrender, just remember Built for stormy weather
Signed the deal, made the papers Tasted sweeter chasing thrills But good time Charlie took the waitress And left me with the bill I’ve just about had my fill
You can rip me off and run me out of town I’ve been torn to pieces, buried six feet down But I’m right here, I’m no pretender Against the wall there’s no surrender, just remember Built for stormy weather
But I’m right here, I’m no pretender Against the wall no surrender, just remember Just remember Built for stormy weather
