Everybody, especially you girls, is it right to be left alone while the one you love is never born?
I love too hard, my friends sometimes say, but I believe, I believe that a woman should be loved that way
But it hurts me so inside to see her treat me so unkind
Somebody, some way, tell her it's unfair
Can I get a witness? Can I get a witness? Can I get a witness?
Somebody, is it right to be feeling so bad when you've given everything you had?
Even tossing in my sleep, cause I haven't seen my baby all week
Now you think too of me, that this ain't the way love's supposed to be
Let me hear you, let me hear you say yeah
Up early in the morning, I was on my mind
Just to find out all night that I've been crying
But I believe, a woman's a man's best friend
So I'm gonna stick by her, till the very end
But she caused so much misery that I forget how love's supposed to be
Somebody, some way, tell her it ain't fair
Can I get a witness? Can I get a witness? Can I get a witness?
I want a witness, witness, witness, witness, witness, witness
Everybody knows, especially you girls
Love can be sad, but half of love is quite as bad
Now all you chicks agree, that this ain't the way it's supposed to be
Let me hear you, let me hear you say yeah
I want a witness, I want a witness, I want a witness
Can I get a witness? I want a witness
Can I get a witness? Just a little bit of love
Can I get a witness?
