Verse 2

In the middle of the summer I had a job bein' a plumber

Just to pass till the fall it was you I wanna ball all day

Ah-we were walkin' along, honey, hand in hand

I'm a-thinkin' of you, mama, when you're thinkin' of another man

But you can go ahead if you want to

Verse 3

All alone on the bone when I didn't have a home

When I saw the way I was and I knew where I was supposed to be

I was twitchin' so I turned and it's really hard to learn

That everyone I saw was just another part of me

But you can go ahead if you want to

'Cause nobody's got no papers on you

(No, babe, it's just a falsehood)
