Wanted, young man single and free 
Experienced in love preferred 
But will accept a young trainee 
Back home I find myself, lost and all alone 

My man is playin' the field, the thrill is gone 
He stays out all night, says he's with the boys 
But lipstick on his collar, perfume on it too 
Tell's me he's been lying 

I tell you what I'm gonna do 
Gonna put it in the want ads 
This girls in misery 
Gonna put it in the want ads 

Somebody rescue me 
I spend my nights alone, crying bitter tears 
Although I cry a lot, nobody really hears 
And when I need him most 

He's never by my side 
He's either playin' cards 
Or drinking at the bar 
He thinks that I'm a fool 

I'm goin' to the evening news 
Gonna put it in the want ads 
My man and I are through 
Extra, extra ,read all about it
