Can I Get a Witness

Listen everybody, especially you girls
Is it right to be left alone
While the one you love is never home?

I love too hard, my friends sometimes say
But I believe, I believe
That a woman should be loved that way

But it hurts me so inside
To see her treat me so unkind
Somebody, somewhere tell her it's unfair

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?
Even tossing in my sleep
Because I haven't seen my baby all week

Now, you chicks all agree
That this ain't the way love's supposed to be
Let me hear, let me hear you say yeah, yeah

Up early in the morning with her on my mind
Just to find out that all night I've been crying
But I believe a woman's a man's best friend
So I'm going to stick by her until the very end
But she causes so much misery I forget how
Love is supposed to be
Somebody, somewhere, tell her it ain't fair

Can I get a witness?
Can I get a witness?
Somebody

Everybody knows, especially you girls
Love can be sad
But I have a love that's twice as bad

Now, you chicks all agree
That this ain't the way love's supposed to be
Let me hear, let me hear you say yeah, yeah

I want a witness
Can I get a witness?
Please get a witness
All right
