It’s A Shame

The Spinners

It's a shame

The way you mess around with your man

It's a shame

The way you hurt me

It's a shame

The way you mess around with your man



I'm sitting all alone

By the telephone

Waitin' for your call

When you don't call at all



It's a shame (Shame)

The way you mess around with your man

It's a shame (Shame)

The way you play with my emotions

It's a shame (Shame)

The way you mess around with your man



You're like a child at play

On a sunny day

First you play with love

And then you throw it away



Why do you use me

Play to confuse me

How can you stand

To be so cruel



Why don't you free me

From this prison

For I served my time

As your fool



It's a shame (Shame)

The way you mess around with your man

It's a shame (Shame)

The way you hurt me

It's a shame (Shame)

The way you mess around with your man



I tried to stick with you

Show you love so true

But you won't appreciate

The love we try to make



Oh, it's a, got to be a shame, uh



Why do you use me

Play to confuse me

How can you stand

To be so cruel



Why don't you free me

From this prison

Served my time

As your fool



Got to be a shame (Shame)

The way you mess around with your man

Oh, it's a shame (Shame)

The way you hurt me

Oh, it's a shame, baby, baby (Shame)

The way you mess around with your man



You got my heart in chains

And I must complain

I just can't think of cryin'

Oh, lookin' at the time



Oh...ho...ho... (Shame)

It's a shame, it's a shame (Shame)

The way you hurt me, yeah

Ooh... (Shame)

Gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta be a shame, oh, yeah



Ooh...
