Lyrics
I fell in love the very 1st time I saw you,, But your old man was a friend of mine, And you got kinda tight with my old lady,, I guess you share the same frame of mind, I don't remember when, but I saw you with your clothes off, There ain't too many women look like you, Honey, I didn't want to spoil any friendships, But then I know I had to sleep with you, But the 1st time I got you all alone you're mind was on your man, And then you said that you didn't think my wife would understand, And when we finally got together, I passed out on you, I guess this song will have to do
This is startin to seem like an obsession, Oh honey, I don't know what to do, I guess we just get the loosest when we been drinkin, Cause they're the only times I get to go home with you, And I seem to screw up so bad every time I get near you, That it's getting hard to look you in the eye, I don't even know just why I wrote this, But I love you's got more future than goodbye, And the next time I get you all alone I'm gonna make you understand, My life has changed, my wife is gone, and I hear you're not with your man, We could be the biggest news since Greg and Cher, And I won't pass out on you I swear
