Lyrics Build Me Up - Huey Lewis & The News

Build Me Up

Don’t try to tell me why
That you just can’t get enough of me
So fine, so unkind
And I can tell that you’re using me
You’re just using me
You know what you do to me
You just build me up
And then you let me down
You make me feel like a man
And treat me like a clown
You’re so strong but you’re so wrong
I Should’ve known it all along
So nice, like free advice
I got this feeling, I’ll be paying price
Paying price, baby
I’ll be paying for the rest of my life
That ain’t nice
You just build me up
And then you act so cool
You make me feel like a man
And treat me like a fool
You got me hangin' on a string
Up and down I go
You got me actin' like a toy
You left me no control, yeah
Well, well, well, I can’t tell
You got me fishing in a wishin' well
How long can this go on
I’m getting tired of the same old song
Tired of the song, baby
It’s been going on much too long
Just the same old song
You just build me up
And then you let me down
You make me feel like a man
And treat me like I can’t be that
You just build me up
And then you act so cool
You make me feel like I can
And treat me like a fool
No, no, dear, don’t you build me up, baby
Don’t you do it, don’t you build me up
Hey, hey, don’t you build me up
