It was only last June when her old man went away She couldn't stop crying 'cause she knew he was gone 2 stay It was 10:35 on a lonely friday night She was standin' by the bar Hmm, she was lookin' alright, yeah She asked me if I wanted 2 dance And she said that all she wanted was a good man And wanted 2 know if I thought I was qualified, yeah
And I said, baby don't waste your time Cause I know what's on your mind I said I may be qualified 4 a one night stand But I could never take the place of your man
It hurt me so bad when I saw her with tears in her eyes He was all she ever had and now she wanted 2 die He left her with a kid and another one on the way She couldn't stop cryin' Cause she knew he was gone 2 stay She asked me if we could be friends And I said, oh, honey baby that's ok Cause U know and I know that we wouldn't be satisfied So I said, baby don't waste your time Cause I know what's on your mind U wouldn't be satisfied with a one night stand And I could never take the place of your man
