Somebody's gonna give you
|
A lesson in leavin'
|
Somebody's gonna give you back
|
What you've been givin'
|
And I hope that I'm around
|
To watch 'em knock you down
|
It's like you to love 'em and leave 'em
|
Just like you loved me and left me
|
It's like you to do that sort of thing
|
Over and over again
|
You're a fool-hearted man
|
|
I hear you've been askin' about me
|
From some of my friends
|
Well, you'd better believe
|
I'm not goin' through that again
|
You're the kind of man
|
A woman thinks she can change
|
Oh, but the only thing changin'
|
Is my way of thinkin'
|
And I'm thinkin' that maybe someday
|
|
Somebody's gonna give you
|
A lesson in losin'
|
Somebody's gonna do to you
|
What you've been doin'
|
And I hope that I'm around
|
To watch 'em knock you down
|
Somebody's gonna give you
|
A lesson in hurtin'
|
Somebody's gonna leave you
|
With your fire burnin'
|
And no way to put it out
|
Baby, there ain't no doubt
|
You're a fool-hearted man
|
|
Yeah, you're the kind of man
|
A woman thinks she can change
|
But the only thing changin'
|
Is my way of thinkin'
|
And I'm thinkin' that maybe someday
|
|
Somebody's gonna give you
|
A lesson in leavin'
|
Somebody's gonna give you back
|
What you've been givin'
|
And I hope that I'm around
|
To watch 'em knock you down
|
It's like you to love 'em and leave 'em
|
Just like you loved me and left me
|
It's like you to do that sort of thing
|
Over and over again
|
You're a fool-hearted man
|
|
Somebody's gonna give you
|
A lesson in leavin'
|
Somebody's gonna give you back
|
What you've been givin'
|
And I hope that I'm around
|
To watch 'em knock you down
|
It's like you to love 'em and leave 'em
|
Just like you loved me and left me
|
It's like you to do that sort of thing
|
Over and over again
|
You're a fool-hearted man
