You Want Somebody Else

(álbum: This Is My Country - 1968)

I try to love ya, in every way
I try to show my loving for you everyday
I try to love you like, no other mortal men
I try to do the best that a man can

And my love is still true
For only you
And although, I want you for myself
You want somebody else
Oh yes, you do, baby

You used to hug me and squeeze me real tight
But now you don't even stay at home late at night
And every time I ask ya, for an explanation
You're always trying to change the conversation

But my love is still true
For only you
And although, I want you for myself
Why do you do it to me
You want somebody else
Oh yes, you do, baby

You told me that you wanted my respect
And girl, I'm trying to do my best
Your love I try to earn
But what did I get in return
I'm trying to maintain my cool
But you know I'm still (being a fool)

You used to hug me and squeeze me real tight
But now you don't even stay at home late at night
And every time I ask ya for an explanation
You're always trying to change the conversation

But my love is still true
For only you
And although, I want ya for myself
Girl, you know
You want somebody else

Why you wanna do it to me
You want somebody else
I'm trying to love you in every way
You want somebody else
Trying to love you child everyday
You want somebody else
I try to do the best that a man can
You want somebody else
I try to do everything...
