You've been hangin' on the phone 
Tryin' to reach me
You can't leave it alone now woman 
Can't you see?
You can turn this boy on 
You got to change your ways
And I told you before 
You got to stop hangin' around my place
Oh no

You better go your own way
You've got to stop wasting my time
I don't want to explain
Why it's like this but you got to know
Your love is in vain
Don't ask me to explain
Your love is in vain
Don't want to say it again

Oh no no no no
I've got to tell ya

I have burned your letters 'cause
Don't want to know what you write
And I won't answer the phone
'Cause I know it's you on that line
Oh no

You better go your own way
You've got to stop wasting my time
I don't want to explain
Why it's like this but you got to know
Your love is in vain
Don't ask me to explain
Your love is in vain
Don't want to say it again
Come on

Your love is in vain
Don't ask me to explain
Your love is in vain
Don't want to say it again

Your love is in vain
Oh get off my back
Your love love love is in vain
Your love love love is in vain
