Melinda was mine 'til the time that I found her Holdin' Jim And lovin' him Then Sue came along, loved me strong, that's what I thought Me and Sue, But that died, too. Don't know that I will but until I can find me A girl who'll stay and won't play games behind me I'll be what I am A solitary man A solitary man I've had it to here - being where love's a small world A part time thing A paper ring I know it's been done havin' one girl who loves me Right or wrong Weak or strong Don't know that I will but until I can find me That girl who'll stay and won't play games behind me I'll be what I am A solitary man A solitary man Don't know that I will but until love can find me And a girl who'll stay and won't play games behind me I'll be what I am A solitary man A solitary man A solitary man
