I’m an independent, stuff my wallet
Multi-taskin’ workaholic
I built this wall
I can tear it down
I’m a double-shot of keep it comin’
Gotta keep the motor runnin’
I built this wall
I can tear it down
(Chorus)
Brick by brick
Stone by stone
Built it high
Built it strong
It’s every man I’ve ever known
Until right now
And there you are with those eyes
Wantin’ on the other side
Well, I built this wall
I can tear it down
Commitment makes me run for cover
Obligation makes me smother
I built this wall
I can tear it down
I got a lot on my plate
Like my freedom like my space
I built this wall
I can tear it down
(Repeat Chorus)
Alright, okay I’ll let you in
But don’t go getting crazy
No diamonds
No wedding
No babies
Nope, no babies
I built this wall
I built this wall
(Repeat Chorus)
Yeah I built this wall
I can tear it down
I built this wall
I can tear it down
