Well, it's hard to me mistreated when you ain't done nothing wrong
Well, it's hard to me mistreated when you ain't done nothing wrong
And you caught your lover-man when you can't keep him at home

Now I'm going to get myself a single man and leave these merried mens alone
I'm going to get myself a single man and leave these merried mens alone
They ain't nothing but a wad of trouble when thay laying up in your arms

I need someone to love me, but someone to call my own
I need someone to love me, but someone to call my own
I'm tired of loving these merried men, can say I know their wives got them and gone

Well, I'm getting so tired staying home all by myself
I'm getting so tired staying home all by myself
And every men I fall in love with, he loving someone else

But I tried to be nice, tried to be nice and kind
I tried to be nice, tried to be nice and kind
But every man I love don't seem like he want to pay me no mind
