Brenda Holloway - I’m The Exception To The Rule

[Verse 1]
Each day, you've got someone new
A new heart to break and leave feeling blue
For you're a handsome guy
And girls just can't pass you by

[Chorus]
But I can, my friend
I'm the exception to the rule

[Verse 2]
I know you think I'm just acting the part
Of a girl with a cold, cold heart
And it won't take long
For you to capture me
With your innocent but meaningful plea

[Chorus]
But oh no (Oh no)
Not me, I'm the exception to the rule

[Bridge]
You tell me
"Darling, that's where you're wrong"
But your love for me is so strong
That it will soon, very soon
Make me give in
I know that nine girls out of every ten
Want you to be their man
But there I am again, that one in ten
[Verse 3]
So it's useless for you to try to change me, rearrange me
Change me, 'cause I won't give in, my friend
You can fool other girls with those lines
About you being so sweet and kind

[Chorus]
But oh no (Oh no), not me
I'm the exception to the rule (Give it up!)

[Outro]
I'm a girl you can't fool (Give it up!)
I'm the exception to the rule (Give it up!)
I'm a girl you can't fool (Give it up!)
I'm the exception to the rule
