I`m tired of foolin` around
I`m trying hard but I`m no Clark Gable
There`s something I wanna say
Here are my cards on the table
The woman I love has eyes of blue
A face like heaven and a body like you
The woman I love is standing next to me
These words don`t come easily
These words are a stranger in my town
But I am what I wanna be
Forget the high-brow here`s the low-down
chorus x2
It`s funny how it never seems
To be the time or place
I can tell it to the world
But I can`t tell it to your face
I got a secret I don`t want anymore
I`d tell you about it but I`m too damn yellow
What does it matter if you walk out that door
What`s to lose baby What the hell
chorus x2
The woman I love is standing next to me
