I bet you're wondering how I knew
Ah, what you're plans to make me blue
With some other guy you knew before
Between the two of us, you know I love you more

I know a man ain't supposed to cry

People say believe half of what you see
Oh, and none of what you hear
Whoa, I jus' can't help being confused
If it's true please tell me dear
Do you plan to let me go
For the other guy you left me for
