It was only last june
When her old man ran way
She couldnt stop crying
cause she knew he was gone to 2 stay
It was 10:35 on a lonely friday night
She was standin by the bar
Hmm, she was lookin alright, yeah
I asked if she wanted 2 dance
And she said all she wanted was a good man
And wanted 2 know
If I thought I was qualified, yeah
And I said, baby dont waste your time
I know whats on your mind
I may be qualified 4 a one night stand
But I could never take the place of you man
It hurt my so bad when she told me
With tears in her eyes
He was all she ever had
And now she wanted 2 die
He left her with a baby
And another one on the way
She couldnt stop cryin
Cause she knew he was gone to 2 stay
She asked me if we could be friends
And I said, oh, honey baby thats a dead end
U know and I know
That we wouldnt be satisfied
No
And I said
Baby dont waste your time
I know whats on your mind
U wouldnt be satisfied
With a one night stand
And I could never take the place of your man
Yeah, yeah, the place of your man.
