Build Me a Lover Lyrics by Jason Dea West

The Magnolia Sessions

2020

[Verse 1]
Well, you see, this town's been cruel to me
But it's taught me many things
The thing I like most 'bout this town is a-leavin' it again
Well, the people, they all shun me
On the street and in the bar
And the only time they ever love is when I'm holdin' my guitar
[Verse 2]
She's a-lookin' for a reason
A reason to ride
Someone to help her cross the bridge that she has built inside
Me, I will keep driftin'
With no lover by my side
Gonna keep it that way until the day I die
Keep it that way until the day I die
[Verse 3]
Well, it's just what a good friеnd
He said to me
Maybe I am not whеre I thought that I would be
But a California street corner
Gonna have to work for me
Ramblin' man, have no destiny
Ramblin' man, have no destiny
[Verse 4]
When the Lord made me, He made a ramblin' man
And He built me a lover
Way down in southern land
She talks about all types of things that I don't understand
You don't know how to love me
Baby, I swear that I can
You don't know how to love
Baby, I swear that I can
You don't know how to love me
Baby, I swear
Well, I swear I can
