I gotta find me
Lord, I gotta find me a part-time love
Listen to me, I gotta find me
Y'all, I gotta find me a part-time love
Yes, I have
And the next time my baby leave me
I'll already have me a part-time love
Look it here

'Cause every time she leave me
I have to suffer the whole while she's gone
I don't guess y'all be bothered with nothin' like that, but
Every time my baby leave me
I have to suffer the whole while she's gone
And y'all don't understand how come I got to do what I got to do
That's why I gotta find me
Oh, I gotta find me a part-time love
Look it here

The people in the cemetery
They out all alone
Some turn to dust
Some of 'em, some of 'em got old
I'd rather be dead
Six feet in the grave
Than to be lonely
Every, every, every day
She came home this morning
And I asked her where she been
She said, "Fool, don't ask me no questions
Or I'll be leavin' again"
Y'all see this wife that I have, man
I just gotta find me a part-time love
Yes, I have
The next time, the next time my baby leave me
I'll already have a part-time love
Now when's your pretty thing comin' here?
Sounds alright

I'm talkin' 'bout a love
One I can lean on
I'm talkin' 'bout a love
That stand by my side
Somebody who won't ever leave me, oh
I'm talkin' 'bout a love
Somebody I can depend on
