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
|
