Lyrics

[00:13.94] Melinda was mine 'til the time
[00:16.73] that I found her holdin'
[00:21.37] Jim and lovin' him.
[00:23.74] Then Sue came along,
[00:25.93] loved me strong,
[00:30.03] that's what I thought,
[00:31.71] but me and Sue,
[00:36.14] that died, too.
[00:40.43] Don't know that I will
[00:42.23] but until I can find me,
[00:46.96] a girl who'll stay and
[00:47.00] won't play games behind me.
[00:53.01] I'll be what I am,
[00:56.32] a solitary man,
[00:59.45] a solitary man,
[00:59.48] a solitary man.
[01:07.59] I've had it to here - being where love's a small word,
[01:13.85] a part time thing, a paper ring.
[01:17.38] I know it's been done
[01:21.98] havin' one girl who loves you,
[01:24.70] right or wrong,
[01:29.92] weak or strong.
[01:34.27] Don't know that I will
[01:36.16] but until I can find me,
[01:40.44] a girl who'll stay and
[01:42.98] won't play games behind me.
[01:46.47] I'll be what I am,
[01:50.04] a solitary man,
[01:50.09] a solitary man,
[01:53.69] a solitary man,
[01:56.62] a solitary man.
[02:14.07] Don't know that I will
[02:15.84] but until I can find me,
[02:20.37] a girl who'll stay and
[02:22.31] won't play games behind me.
[02:26.02] I'll be what I am,
[02:29.71] a solitary man,
[02:32.65] a solitary man,
[02:35.90] a solitary man,
[02:38.93] a solitary man.
[02:43.89] Don't know that I will
[02:45.70] but until I can find me,
[02:50.39] a girl who'll stay and
[02:52.56] won't play games behind me.
[02:55.96] I'll be what I am,
[02:59.50] a solitary man,
[03:02.67] a solitary man,
[03:05.67] a solitary man,
[03:09.04] a solitary man.
