It was only last June
|
When her old man ran way
|
She couldn't stop crying
|
'Cause she knew he was gone to 2 stay
|
|
It was 10:35 on a lonely Friday night
|
She was standin' by the bar
|
Hmm, she was lookin' alright, yeah
|
|
I asked if she wanted 2 dance
|
And she said all she wanted was a good man
|
And wanted 2 know
|
If I thought I was qualified, yeah
|
|
And I said, baby don't waste your time
|
I know what's on your mind
|
I may be qualified 4 a one night stand
|
But I could never take the place of you man
|
|
It hurt my so bad when she told me
|
With tears in her eyes
|
He was all she ever had
|
And now she wanted 2 die
|
|
He left her with a baby
|
And another one on the way
|
She couldn't stop cryin'
|
Cause she knew he was gone to 2 stay
|
|
She asked me if we could be friends
|
And I said, oh, honey baby that's a dead end
|
U know and I know
|
That we wouldn't be satisfied
|
No
|
And I said
|
|
Baby don't waste your time
|
I know what's on your mind
|
U wouldn't be satisfied
|
With a one night stand
|
And I could never take the place of your man
|
Yeah, yeah, the place of your man.
