I can’t be that other woman, I can’t be that other woman
You only see me every Friday night
Can’t imagine what you told her this time
You never took me to a public place
Worried that somebody might notice your face
First to the liquor store and then a motel
Call up your friends just to cover your trail
Not a word until the week goes by
You call me when you want some pie
PREHOOK:
Why am I crying every night over you
You’re never gonna leave her
Finally I woke up and smelled the coffee
I understand why two women can’t share one man
HOOK:
Can’t be that other woman
I can’t love you down
I can’t keep creepin’ around
I can’t be that other woman
yes I want you bad
But she needs you much more
(Repeat)
You never see me on the holidays
You disappear and won’t return my page
You take my body in the middle of the night
I ain’t gonna lie ‘cause boy you do it so right
And then you melt me with them same three words
Sweetest seduction that I ever heard
And in the morning with the sunrise
You run to her I realize
PREHOOK
HOOK
Can I get a witness (yes you can)
Can I get a witness (oh yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Can I get a witness (you know you can)
Have you ever been in love with another girl’s man
Can I get a witness (yes you can)
Can I get a witness (oh yeah yeah yeah yeah)
You said you’re leaving a thousand times
But I won’t believe 'til the papers are signed
HOOK
In the morning with the sunrise
You will run to her
Boy you never gonna leave her
So I’m saying goodbye
