Ah, listen everybody |
|
Especially you guys |
|
Is it right to be left alone |
|
When the one you love is never home? |
|
I love too hard |
|
Yeah, my friends sometimes say |
|
But i believe, oh i believe |
|
That a boy should be loved that way |
|
But it hurts me so inside |
|
See him treat me so unkind |
|
A-somebody, a-somewhere |
|
Tell him it ain't fair |
|
Can i get a witness? |
|
Can i get a witness? |
|
Can i get a witness? |
|
Somebody? |
|
Is it right to be treated so bad? |
|
When you've given everything you had |
|
Keep on tossing in my sleep |
|
'cause i haven't seen my baby all week |
|
Now, you people you do agree |
|
That this ain't the way love's supposed to be |
|
A-let me hear you |
|
Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah |
|
Up early in the morning |
|
With him on my mind |
|
Just to find out all night |
|
That i've been crying |
|
But i believe, oh, that a boy is a girl's best friend |
|
So, i'm gonna stick by him 'til the very end |
|
But he caused so much misery |
|
I forget how love's supposed to be |
|
Somebody, somewhere tell him |
|
It ain't fair |
|
Can i get a witness? |
|
Can i get a witness? |
|
I want a witness |
|
Witness, witness, witness, witness |
|
Everybody knows, especially you boys |
|
That a love can be sad |
|
But half a love is twice as bad |
|
Now you people you do agree |
|
That this ain't the way love's supposed to be |
|
Let me hear you |
|
Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah |
|
I want a witness |
|
Can i get a witness? |
|
I want a witness |
|
Come on, witness |
|
I want a witness, hey |
|
Come on, witness |
|
I want a witness |
