Only last June when her old man ran away 
She couldn't stop crying cause she 
knew he was gone to stay 
10:35 on a lonely Friday night 
She was standing 
by the fire and ooh she was looking alright 

I asked her if she wanted to 
dance 
And she said that 
All she wanted was a good man 
And wanted to 
know 
If I thought I was qualified 

Chorus :
And I said baby don't 
waste your time 
I know what's on your mind 
I may be qualified for a one 
night stand 
But I could never take the place of your man 

It hurt me 
so bad when she told me with tears in her eyes 
He was all she ever had and 
now she wanted to die 
He left her with a baby and another one on the way 

She couldn't stop crying cause she knew he was gone to stay 

She 
asked me if we could be friends 
And I said oh honey baby that's a dead end 

You know and I know 
That we wouldn't be satisfied 


[Chorus]

[Chorus] till fade
