Well, I knew she belonged
To someone else at the time
But lonely look in women
Are a weakness of mine
So I bought all she said about the love
He never gave her
And figured I just love her some
And do us both a favor
Just as I got up to leave
He walked through the door
And I guess I thought he'd be surprised
But he looked at me as if to say
He's been there before
And he offered me these words to the wise
He said, you know she's a cheater son
But you believe that you're the one
Who's got a lot of what it takes to change her
And I know now that you can't get her
You ain't much but that don't matter
Nothing suits her better than a stranger
And the stranger man the better
And the chances are she'll set her
Eyes on you the next time she goes slummin'
So you sit back and wait your turn, boy
You got lots of times to learn, boy
Cool it while you can, your time's comin'
To someone else at the time
But lonely look in women
Are a weakness of mine
So I bought all she said about the love
He never gave her
And figured I just love her some
And do us both a favor
Just as I got up to leave
He walked through the door
And I guess I thought he'd be surprised
But he looked at me as if to say
He's been there before
And he offered me these words to the wise
He said, you know she's a cheater son
But you believe that you're the one
Who's got a lot of what it takes to change her
And I know now that you can't get her
You ain't much but that don't matter
Nothing suits her better than a stranger
And the stranger man the better
And the chances are she'll set her
Eyes on you the next time she goes slummin'
So you sit back and wait your turn, boy
You got lots of times to learn, boy
Cool it while you can, your time's comin'
