How can you say that you love me,
When you never look me in the face.
How can you say that you need me,
When you`ve been messing around.
All over the place.
I went downtown yesterday,
And was walking in the marketplace
All the women they laughed at me,
They whispered that I was a disgrace.
You`ve been out all night drinking again,
You never even bother to call.
Been crossing blades with God knows who,
You`re headed for your rise and fall.
Sooner or later I`ll wake up,
And rub the sleep out of my eyes.
Later that day when you wake up,
You`ll be in for a big surprise.
You talk about yourself all night,
When really you are such a bore.
You gave me flowers to my face,
Behind my back you call me a whore.
I`ve had enough of you God knows what,
I think it`s time for you to leave.
I`ve forgiven you too many times before,
This time you get no reprive.
The bed`s too big without you,
But I suppose it`ll have to do.
Better to lay in an empty bed,
Than to spend another night beside you.
People talking all over town,
About the way you`ve been putting me down.
People talking all over town,
They don`t wanna see you around.
