Another Man

Do you remember when I said
 She's got the papers and I've got the man?
 But the man that she had, that I took from her
 Is not the manchild that we thought he was at all
 Caught in the middle I don't know what to do
 What can you do when your man is untrue?
 There's another man, oh baby
 In my life (in my life)
 He looked very normal till I opened my eyes
 The man I loved and married loves another guy
 There's another man (another man) in my life
 Oh in my life
 Another man is beating my time (another man is beating my time)
 Another man is lovin' mine (another man is lovin' mine)
 Another man is beating my time (another man)
 Another man is lovin' mine (another man is lovin' mine)
 (Another man is beating my time) I'm going crazy
 (Another man is lovin' mine) Crazy
 (Another man is beating my time) Going crazy
 (Another man is lovin' mine)
 You know you and I were together
 I was so in love with you
 But there was a little bit
 Too much sugar and you were a little too sweet
 But there was a little bit
 Too much sugar and you were too sweet
 I think I wanna stay but I don't know if I can
 Loving like I do and sharing with the man
 There's another man (another man)
 In my life (in my life)
 Oh I think I want to leave
 But I can't swallow my pride
 My midnight lover loves another guy
 There's another man (another man) in my life
 In my life
 Another man is beating my time (another man is beating my time)
 Another man is lovin' mine (another man is lovin' mine)
 Another man is beating my time (another man is beating my time)
 Another man is lovin' mine (another man is lovin' mine)
 (Another man is beating my time)
 (Another man is lovin' mine)
 (Another man is beating my time)
 (Another man is lovin' mine)
 You know I started to notice
 A definite strangeness
 There was no sameness
 He was changing
 I had gone out one day and bought me
 A very, very sexy dress
 And opened up my closet and it had disappeared
 Lord I hope the man is not wearing my
 Ooh child
 And I also picked up other little things
 Like when we were making love the other night
 I thought he was calling out my name
 But it evidently it was not my name
 And I passed him on the steps one day
 And he was switching more than I was
 And I even caught them holding hands
 Walking right down Market Street
 Y'alll know what Market Street is
 He was so desirable
 And this gonna be such a waste
 You know when you think everything is in place
 And what you think you have is not what you really have at all
 Because in my case what I thought I had
 Was not an entire whole man
 But a facsimile there of
 Weren't the clothing or nothin', you know, I'm not...
 There was a certain kind of a way that he talked to me
 His voice went up
 You know, at first he was talking like, "Yeah baby"
 And then he went vibrato
 And, and it kept going up and down
 And then there must have been, I figured, a defect
 Of not when he was created
 But somewhere down the line
 Something went wrong
