So you told all the boys that you were gonna take me out
Ya even, ya even had the nerve to make a bet, oh yes you did
That I would give in, all my love you would win
But ya haven´t, you haven´t won it yet
You took me for a pushover
Oh you thought I was a pushover
Oh I´m not a pushover
You thought my love was easy to get
All of the girls think you´re fine, they even call ya Romeo
Ya got´em, yeah you got´em runnin´ to and fro, oh yes you have
But I don´t want a one night thrill, I want a love that´s for real
And I can tell by your line, yours is not the lastin´ kind
You took me for a pushover
Oh you thought I was a pushover
No I´m not a pushover
You thought that you could change my mind
Your temptin´ lips, your wavy hair
Your pretty eyes with that come hither stare
It makes me weak and I start to bend
And then I stop and think again
"No, no, no don´t let yourself go"
I hate to spoil your reputation, I want a true love not an invitation
And I´m hip to every word in your conversation
You took me for a pushover
Oh I´m not a pushover
Oh you thought I was a pushover
Oh you can´t push me over
Nobody´s gonna push me over
Oh you´re not man enough to push me over
Yeah everybody thought you was gonna push me over
Ya even, ya even had the nerve to make a bet, oh yes you did
That I would give in, all my love you would win
But ya haven´t, you haven´t won it yet
You took me for a pushover
Oh you thought I was a pushover
Oh I´m not a pushover
You thought my love was easy to get
All of the girls think you´re fine, they even call ya Romeo
Ya got´em, yeah you got´em runnin´ to and fro, oh yes you have
But I don´t want a one night thrill, I want a love that´s for real
And I can tell by your line, yours is not the lastin´ kind
You took me for a pushover
Oh you thought I was a pushover
No I´m not a pushover
You thought that you could change my mind
Your temptin´ lips, your wavy hair
Your pretty eyes with that come hither stare
It makes me weak and I start to bend
And then I stop and think again
"No, no, no don´t let yourself go"
I hate to spoil your reputation, I want a true love not an invitation
And I´m hip to every word in your conversation
You took me for a pushover
Oh I´m not a pushover
Oh you thought I was a pushover
Oh you can´t push me over
Nobody´s gonna push me over
Oh you´re not man enough to push me over
Yeah everybody thought you was gonna push me over
