PROMISES FORGOTTEN

(Timothy Brickley and David Rheins)

 

I’ve got a baby with her hands full.

I got a baby’s got another man.

I got a girlfriend with a timetable.

She fits me in when she can,

but only when she can.

 

All I ever wanted was someone to love me.

All I ever wanted was someone.

All she ever gives me is excuses.

Promises forgotten in her fun.

 

   Promises forgotten in her fun.

   Promises forgotten in her fun.

   Promises forgotten.

 

I’m in a position of part-time passion,

dissatisfied with dissatisfaction.

All of the problems and none of the action.

 

I got a woman free.

I got a run-around.

I got a problem, you see,

My girl is all over town.

My girl gets around.

 

I’ve got a baby with her hands full.

I got a baby’s got another man.

I got a girlfriend with a timetable.

She fits me in when she can,

but only when she can.

 

   Promises forgotten in her fun.

   Promises forgotten in her fun.

   Promises forgotten.
