"I'm Not Lisa" is a country song written and recorded by American country artist Jessi Colter. It was released as a single on January 16, 1975, by Capitol Records. "I'm Not Lisa" would become Colter's first major hit as a solo artist.

"I'm Not Lisa" was written by Colter and describes the pain that comes with dating someone who has not gotten over a previous lover. The previous lover, named Lisa, was taken away by "His hand", which implies that she died or left with another man. The song is sung from the perspective of the man's current lover named Julie who laments the fact that he can't get over Lisa.

While singing on the recording of the original version of the song, Colter also played the song's piano accompaniment on the keyboards. The song was produced by Ken Mansfield and Colter's husband, Waylon Jennings. Both men would also produce Colter's 1975 album, as well as her further releases for Capitol records.
