Solitary Man

B.J. Thomas

Melinda was mine

'Til the time

That I found her

Holding Jim

And lovin' him



Then you came along

Loved me strong

That's what I thought

Me and you

But that died too



I don't know that I will

But until I can find me

A girl who'll stay

And won't play games behind me

I'll be what I am

A solitary man

Solitary man



I've had it to here

Bein' where

Love's a small word

Part-time thing

A paper ring



I know it's been done

Havin' one girl to love you

Right or wrong

Weak or strong



I don't know that I will

But until I can find me

A girl who'll stay

And won't play games behind me

I'll be what I am

A solitary man

Solitary man



I don't know that I will

But until I can find me

A girl who'll stay

And won't play games behind me

I'll be what I am

A solitary man

A solitary man

Solitary man

A solitary man

A solitary man

Solitary man
