I've been run down, and I've been lied to.
And I don't know why I let that mean woman make me a fool.
She took all my money. Wrecked my new car.
Now she's with one of my good time buddies,
they're drinkin' in some crosstown bar.
Sometimes I feel,

and I can't run.

I've been run down, and I've been lied to,
And I don't know why I let that mean woman make me a fool.
She took all my money, wrecked my new car,
Now she's with one of my good time buddies
Drinkin in some cross town bar

- Good lord I feel like I'm dying.
My friends tell me that I've been such a fool,
And I have to stand by and take if, baby, all for loving you.
Drown myself in sorrow and I look at what you've done,
But nothing seems to change, the bad times stay the same
And I can't go on
