Can I Get A Witness — текст песни (Supremes, The)

(Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland, Jr.)

Listen everybody, especially you guys
Is it right to be left alone
While the one you love is never home?
I love too hard, my friends sometimes say
But I believe, I believe
A man should loved that way
But it hurts me so inside
To see him treat me so unkind
Somebody, somewhere tell him it`s unfair

Can I get a witness?
Can I get a witness?
Can I get a witness?
Somebody
I want a witness

Is it right to be treated so bad
When you`ve given everything you had?
Even tossin` in my sleep
`Cause I haven`t seen my baby all week
Now, you girls do agree
That this ain`t the way love`s supposed to be
Let me hear, let me hear you say yeah, yeah

Up early in the morning with him on my mind
Just to find out all night that I`ve been cryin`
But I believe a man`s a woman`s best friend
So I`m gonna stick by him till the very end
But he causes so much misery I forget how
Love is supposed to be
Somebody, somewhere, tell him it ain`t fair

Can I get a witness?
I want a witness

Everybody knows, especially you girls
Love can be bad
But I have a love that`s twice as bad
Now you girls do agree
That this ain`t the way love`s supposed to be
Let me hear, let me hear you say yeah, yeah

Can I get a witness
