Excuses

So don? t you give me excuses
 Hey, now woman, don? t tell me what it means to cry
 How now lover, don? t tell me how I feel tonight
 Woman, you lie and give me dance style
 I know, sister, I see it in your eyes
 You wanna be rich, babe
 You wanna be free darling
 You wanna find somebody new
 You wanna get high, babe
 Ride it with style, darling
 Laughing at me as I? ve cried about you
 I said I? ve been lonely and I? ve lost sweet time loving you
 I said I? ve been heartbroken, angry
 But now I? ve found somebody, too
 So don? t you give me excuses
 Hey, now woman, don? t tell me how it feels to live alone
 Hey, now lover, don? t tell me where I went wrong again
 They trip off your tongue
 These dance hall excuses
 But I know woman, I feel it in my soul
 Hey, now, hey, now, Lord, you give me dance style
 I know lover, I see it in your eyes
 You wanna be rich, babe
 You wanna be free, darling
 You wanna find somebody new
 You wanna get high, babe
 Ride it with style, darling
 Laughing at me as I? ve cried about you
 I said I? ve been lonely and I? ve lost sweet time loving you
 I said I? ve been heartbroken, angry
 But now I? ve found somebody, too
 (And she makes love as sweet as you used to)
