Can I Get a Witness

Listen everybody especially you girls
Is it right to be left alone?
While the one you love is never home?
I love too hard my friends sometimes say

I believe I believe that a woman should be loved that way
But it hurts me so inside to see her treat me so unkind
Somebody somewhere tell her it's unfair
Can I get a witness?
Can I get a witness?
Can I get a witness?

Somebody is it right to be treated so bad
When you've given everything you had?
Even tossing in my sleep
'Cause I haven't seen my baby all week

Now you chicks all agree
That this ain't the way love's supposed to be
Up early in the morning with her on my mind
Just to find out all night that I've been crying

But I believe a woman's a man's best friend
So I'm going to stick by her till the very end
But she caused so much misery
I forget how love is supposed to be

Somebody somewhere tell her it's unfair
Can I get a witness?
I want a witness
Witness witness
Witness witness

Everybody knows
Especially you girls
That love can be sad
But I have a love that's twice as bad

Now all you chicks agree
That ain't the way it's supposed to be
Let me hear you
Let me hear you say

I want a witness
I want a witness
I want a witness
I want a witness

Somebody is it right to be treated so bad
When you've given everything you had?
Even tossing in my sleep
'Cause I haven't seen my baby all week
But she caused so much misery
That ain't the way love's supposed to be

I want a witness
I want a witness
I want a witness
I want a witness
