It's A Shame

It's a shame, the way you mess around with your man

It's a shame the way you hurt me

It's a shame, the way you mess around with your man

I'm sitting all alone, by the telephone

Waiting for your call, when you don't call at all

It's a shame (shame) the way you mess around with your man

It's a shame (shame) the way you play with my emotions

It's a shame (shame) the way you mess around with your man

You're like a child at play, on a sunny day

'Cause you play with love, and then you throw it away

Why do you use me, try to confuse me

How can you stand, to be so cruel

Why don't you free me, from this prison

Where I serve my time as your fool

It's a shame (shame) the way you mess around with your man

It's a shame (shame) the way you hurt me

It's a shame (shame) the way you mess around with your man

I try to stay with you, show you love so true

But you won't appreciate, the love we try to make

Oh, it's got to be a shame

Why do you use me, try to confuse me

How can you stand, to be so cruel

Why don't you free me, from this prison

Where I serve my time as your fool

Got to be a shame (shame) the way you mess around with your man

Ohhh, it's a shame (shame) the way you hurt me

It's a shame (shame) the way you mess around with your man

You've got my heart in chains, and I must complain

I just can't be content, oh look at (muttering)

Got to, got to, be a shame
