I'm tired of foolin' around
I'm trying hard but I'm no Clark Gable
There's something I wanna say
Here are my cards on the table
The woman I love has eyes of blue
A face like heaven and a body like you
The woman I love is standing next to me
These words don't come easily
These words are a stranger in my town
But I am what I wanna be
Forget the high-brow here's the low-down
chorus x2
It's funny how it never seems
To be the time or place
I can tell it to the world
But I can't tell it to your face
I got a secret I don't want anymore
I'd tell you about it but I'm too damn yellow
What does it matter if you walk out that door
What's to lose baby What the hell
chorus x2
The woman I love is standing next to me
