Say, listen babeDon't go wastin' your timeYou keep comin' 'roundYou'll hear the same old line

'Cause lately it's been so hardTo make ends meetAnd honey, you're headin' down aOne way streetAnd I gotta go the other way(Heh, heh, heh)

This one way cityThat I thought I knewIt's such a pity, honeyThat's it for you'Cause lately it's been so hardTo make ends meetAnd honey, you're headin' down aOne way streetAnd I gotta go the other way
There's nothing over hereI never showed youI made it pretty clearI'm glad to know you
