Jerry treats me nice, now, wherever we go Brian's awful sweet to me Bob is such a doll when he looks in my eyes Larry keeps me company Gary wants to buy me a diamond ring & Johnny says for me he'd do anything But the one you can't have is the one that you want the most
It's so true now They spend up their money like it grows on trees They all buy me shoes the world They make you feel important as a girl should feel They tell you you're the only girl They're all puttin' out a lady's show for you They're even at each other's throats for you But the one you can't have is the one that you want the most
Human nature, why did you make it this way? Ow-wee Everyone but the one I love makes a play for me
Never had trouble gettin' guys around me I've never been without a boyfriend I always had 'em plain get nice with me I keep 'em guessin' to the end But the love of my life is really there alone & the only time things are bad & gone wrong, yeah
(repeat & fade): The one you can't have is the one that you want the most
