Mary Wells

Mary Esther Wells (May 13, 1943 – July 26, 1992) was an American singer who helped to define the emerging sound of Motown in the early 1960s. Along with The Miracles, The Temptations, The Supremes, and the Four Tops, Wells was said to have been part of the charge in black music onto radio stations and record shelves of mainstream America, "bridging the color lines in music at the time." more »

Oh yeah)x4 
You had the sweetest boy in the world 
Without a doubt you were the envy of every girl 
You're the kind that's never satisfied 
You want every boy to pass you by 
But the tables turned (the tables turned) 
'Cause his words tell you're done 
Now the hurt's on you 
Your little scheme backfired, it's true 
You thought it was fun to make the boys run 

CHORUS: 
You lost the sweetest boy that you had that time 
The sweetest boy that you had 

'Cause now he's hangin' around my door 
More happier than before 
Now you're in misery 'cause you lost him to me 
Now the hurt's on you, now the hurt's on you 
Your little scheme backfired, it's true 
You made bets, any boy you could get 
(chorus) 

(instrumental) 

(Oh yeah)x4 
Yes, your loss is my gain 
'Cause straight into my arms he came 
You want every boy to pass you by 
Now the hurt's on you, now the hurt's on you 
Your little scheme backfired, it's true 
Now tears of regret just covered your face 
(repeat chorus and fade
