Melinda was mine 'Til the time that I found her Holding Jim, loving him Then you came along, loved me strong That's what I thought Me and you, but that died too Don't know that I will But until I can find me The girl who'll stay And won't play games behind me I'll be what I am A solitary man, solitary man I've had it to here Bein' where love's a small word Part-time thing, paper ring I know it's been done Havin' one girl who'll loves me Right or wrong, weak or strong
