"The Same Old Story" lyrics

"The Same Old Story"

I try so hard to be your lovin' man
I do what you want me, I do
But a man needs a woman, he don't wanna share
So girl what's wrong with you

You been lyin', cheatin', runnin' around
Honey, what you want me to do
This man needs a woman, he don't wanna share
So who's hiding under my bed

She said:
"Honey, you must be mistaken
There's nobody takin' your place"

I said, Lord, Lord, she had the same old story
I had to hear it over again
She said, Lord, no, she had the same old story
I had to hear it over again, oh

I try so hard to be your lovin' man
I do what you want me, I do
But a man needs a woman, he don't wanna share
So honey, what's wrong with you

She said:
"Honey, you must be mistaken
There's no man takin' your place"

I said, Lord, Lord, she had the same old story
I had to hear it over again
I said, Lord, Lord, she had the same old story
I had to hear it over again
I said, Lord knows, she had the same old story
I had to hear it over again
I said, Lord, Lord, she had the same old story
I had to hear it over again
I said, Lord, Lord, she had the same old story
I had to hear it over again
I said, Lord, Lord, she had the same old story
I had to hear it over again
I said, Lord knows, she had the same old story
I had to hear it over again
I said, Lord knows, she had the same old story
I had to hear it over again
I said, Lord, Lord, she had the same old story
I had to hear it over again
I said, Lord, Lord, she had the same old story
I had to hear it over again

"Now I ain't been lyin' and cheatin' and runnin' around, baby
I ain't been doin' none of those things
And there ain't been nobody hiding underneath no bed nowhere
Cause I ain't been nothin' but a true fine woman
And I'm gonna have the same old story
I'm gonna have the same old story over again
Cause honey you must be mistaken
There ain't no man takin' your place, oh Lord
Baby I want you to hear me, there ain't, I said there sure ain't
I said there ain't no man, I said there ain't no man takin' your place, baby
I said, I said there ain't no man under your bed
I said baby, I said baby I love you
Oh man, I been tryin' hard to
I'm gonna do what you want me to do, oh shit!
Come here honey, I show you how to do something
I show you how to mess around"

I said, Lord, Lord, she had the same old story
I had to hear it over again
I said, Lord, Lord, she had the same old story
I had to hear it over again

Quack!
