She said, `Tell me what it`s all about.` I said `Why, why, why?
It`s just something you could do without. You better try, try try.`
She said, `I can`t reach you on the telephone.
I can`t call you when you`re not at home.
You keep saying that you`re all alone.
That`s a lie, lie, lie.`
CHORUS:
Bad advice had me down and undone. Got to try again to believe in myself.
Look at me, I`m alone in the end. Can you see me falling, falling down.
I said, `Mama can you get it straight?` She said `Why, why, why?`
-`I wanna tell you that it just can`t wait, so let`s try, try, try`
She said, `I don`t care where you might have gone.
I don`t care `cause you`ve done me wrong.
You been doin` it far too long,
So goodbye, bye, bye.`
CHORUS
