[Chorus]
You ain't got the right to tell me I'm not lonely
You don't understand what I've been through
She had every right to do the wrong that she done to me
And that don't make it easier to lose
And that don't make it easier to lose

[Verse 1]
I woke up Wednesday mornin' with the feelin' she was gone
And I turned to face an empty place and I realised
That I didn't smell no coffee and all her pretty clothes was gone
I cried the first of the many tears you'll see me cryin' from now on

[Chorus]
And you ain't got the right to tell me I'm not lonely
'Cause you don't understand what I've been through
She had every right to do the wrong that she done to me
But that don't make it easier to lose
And that don't make it easier to lose

[Verse 2]
I know her list of lovers was just as long as mine
But the sometime plan of a natural man is to settle down
But the one time ways of that woman have done busted up my mind
Well she's out the door, she's got one more on her list than I got on mine
[Chorus]
And you ain't got the right to tell me I'm not lonely
'Cause you don't understand what I've been through
She had every right to do the wrong that she done to me
And that don't make it easier to lose
And that don't make it easier to lose

[Verse 3]
It's gonna be a long time 'fore I come this way again
I been dragged through school and I learned the rules and it seems to me
That a woman love to do you but she won't always do you nice
Yeah, she had her turn, I guess I learned, you know, she ain't gonna do me twice

[Chorus]
And you still ain't got the right to tell me I'm not lonely
'Cause you don't understand what I've been through
She had every right to do the wrong that she done to me
And that don't make it easier to lose
And that don't make it easier to lose
