Baby, you talked in your sleep last night, you don't have to lie to me.
Baby, you talked in your sleep last night, you don't have to lie to me.
You told me that was your brother baby, But it's your ol' time usta be.

Men, if you single, pray to God you stay that way.
Men, if you single, pray to God you stay that way.
‘Cause women don't want a good man, only just to pass the time away.

You can give a woman a diamond, can dress her with her head on down.
You can give a woman plenty diamonds, can dress her from her head on down.
She tell everybody she got a fool, with the talk all over town.

I know what I'm talkin' about, I been a fool myself.
Yes men, I know what I'm talkin' ‘bout, ‘cause I've been a fool myself.
I was in love with a woman; I found out, she belonged to somebody else.
