Ooh, woman and a woman, them are silly games you play, yeah.
(didn’t you? didn’t you?)
Dealin’ with your troubles drove me away.
Ooh, well a sayin’ that you’re leavin’, I don’t wanna hear that talk.
Stare at disbelief in me when I just up and walk outta love (outta love) again, (outta love) once again.
Ooh, lovin’ and a livin’ and a treat me like a fool.
(didn’t you? didn’t you?)
You’re doin’ all you can to make me sad and blue.
Didn’t you?
Ooh, well a sayin’ that you’re leavin’, I don’t wanna hear that talk.
Stare at disbelief in me when I just up and walk outta love (outta love) again, (outta love) once again. A-g-g-g-g-gain.
