Lyrics
Baby he'll be gone before the dawn
Slick style with the running shoes on
As morning brings another day
He must be miles and miles away
And you're to blame (blame blame blame)
Ain't this a shame (shame shame shame)
Ain't this a shame
Maybe he'll be back through here some day
But chivalry has gone and lost the way
and as midnight brings another man
Same story plays out again
And you're to blame (blame blame blame)
Ain't this a shame (shame shame shame)
And you're to blame (blame blame blame)
Ain't this a shame (shame shame shame)
