Givin' Up On You
-R. Younkins-

Got me a girl who is still on the loose
I’d be better off hangin’ from a lynchman’s noose
Mt attraction to her is such a mistake
I’m headed for a heartbreak

Well I can’t seem to work & I can’t seem to play
She’s got my head spinnin’ nite and day

I’m givin’ up on you, Can’t trust a thing you do
I’m givin’ up on you, I’m givin’ up, givin’ up, givin’ up on you

Saw her yesterday walkin’ down 3rd street
Wonderin’ where she’s headed and who she’s gonna meet
Well I ain’t no detective and I ain’t no spy
Gotta sneakin’ suspicion there’s more than meets the eye

Well she’s a wildcat baby, I can’t tame or treat
Can’t tie her down, She loves a dancin’ beat

I’m givin’ up on you, Can’t trust a thing you do
I’m givin’ up on you, I’m givin’ up, givin’ up, givin’ up on you

Solo

Well my temperature’s risin’, My level’s ‘bout to break
I have no option, Baby that’s all I can take

She came thru my door late last nite I presume
The smell of musk for men is not her perfume
I don’t need no fingerprints to prove that she’s lowdown
She’s been foolin’ around with every man in town

(Well) I’ve been blind but now I see
(That) All along my baby’s been cheatin’ on me

I’m givin’ up on you, Can’t trust a thing you do
I’m givin’ up on you, Yeah girl I’ve had it with you
I’m givin’ up on you, Can’t trust a thing you do
I’m givin’ up, givin’ up, I’m givin’ up, givin’up
Givin’ up on you
