[Chorus:]
You can have her, I don't want her
She didn't love me anyway
She only wanted someone to play with
All I wanted was love to stay

The girl I love, up and left me
She ran away with my best friend
Comes home at night, for just one hour
When daylight comes she's gone again

[Chorus]

When you're stuck with the wrong woman
There ain't much that you can do
Just dig a hole and crawl right in it
Then pull the ground right in over you

[Chorus]

Life without love is might empty
But confession is good for your soul
I'd rather have love for just one hour
Then have the world and all it's gold

[Chorus x2]
