Johnny gave Susan a wedding band |
|
Now she wears it on her left hand |
|
I'm doing the best I can |
|
To forget she used to call me her right hand man |
|
Susan always knew I'm not marrying kind |
|
But she said she would love me for all time |
|
Said a wedding band just sparkles and shines |
|
Be my right hand man and that'll be fine |
|
CHORUS |
|
A right hand man can be your lover |
|
Carry the load when the wind blows cold |
|
He can be replaced by another |
|
Who's carrying the gold |
|
Susan made me think our love was real |
|
There are times I believe her still |
|
But Johnny walked in right out of left field |
|
Put a right hand man in a left hand deal |
|
Repeat CHORUS |
|
They say don't let your right hand know what your left hand's doin' |
|
Susan kept me in the dark for a long, long time |
|
I had no idea that love's foundation was turning into ruin |
|
Cause being a right hand man was a dream of mine |
|
Repeat CHORUS |
