First Come, First Serve

(albüm: Rose Royce III: Strikes Again! - 1978)

Life turned to love
Now love is about to turn into hate
You ask me, "Can we try it again"
Boy, let me tell you something
Our road has come to an end, huh

First come, first serve
Hey, you don't want my love
So I'm giving it away
First come, first serve
And if it hurts your pride
Boy, you get what you deserve

Boy, tell the truth, did it ever occur to you
That I have wants, desires and needs too
While you were out there roaming and homing the streets
I sat home lonely, night after night, in desperate need, oh

First come, first serve
Hey, you don't want my love
So I'm giving it away
First come, first serve
And if it hurts your pride
Boy, you get what you deserve, oh

Boy, I want you to know that I'm a-through talking
So I can get my things and start walking
Conversation ain't what, what I need, no, no
In case you want to know I'm taking it to the streets, oh

First come, first serve, tell the truth, boy
You don't want my love
So I'm giving it away
First come, first serve
And if it hurts your pride
Boy, you get what you deserve, uh-huh

First come, first serve, ain't it true
You don't want my love
So I'm giving it away
First come, first serve
And if it hurts your pride
Boy, you get what you deserve, oh

First come, first serve
Hey, you don't want my love
So I'm giving it away
First come, first serve
And if it hurts your pride
Boy, you get what you deserve, I'm moving on

First come, first serve
I'm moving on, I'm moving on
Bye-bye, baby
First come, first serve
