Another Man (12" Vocal)

Do you remember when I said she got the papers and I got the man?

Well the man that she had, that I took from here

Is not the man child that we thought he was at all

Caught in the middle, I don't know what to do

What can you do when your man is untrue?

There's another man, oh baby

In my life (In my life)

He looked very normal till I opened my eyes

The man I loved and married loves another guy

There's another man (Another man) in my life

Oh in my life

Oh

Another man is beating my time

(Another man is beating my time)

Another man is lovin' mine

(Another man is lovin' mine)

Another man is beating my time

(Another man)

Another man is lovin' mine

(Another man is lovin' mine)

(Another man is beating my time) I'm goin' crazy

(Another man is lovin' mine) Crazy

(Another man is beating my time) Goin' crazy

(Another man is lovin' mine)

You know, you and I were together

I was so in love with you

But there was a little bit

Too much sugar, and you were a little too sweet

(There was a little bit too much sugar and you were a little too sweet)

I think I wanna stay but I don't know if I can

Lovin' like I do and sharing with the man

There's another man (Another man)

In my life (In my life)

Oh I think I wanna leave but I can't swallow my pride

My midnight lover loves another guy

There's another man (Another man)

In my life (In my life)

Another man is beating my time

(Another man is beating my time)

Another man is lovin' mine

(Another man is lovin' mine)

Another man is beating my time

(Another man is beating my time)

Another man is lovin' mine

(Another man is lovin' mine)

(Another man is beating my time)

(Another man is lovin' mine)

(Another man is beating my time)

(Another man is lovin' mine)

You know, I started to notice

A definite strangeness

There was no sameness

He was changing

I had gone out and bought myself a very, very sexy dress

And opened up my closet and it had disappeared

Lord, I hope the man is not wearing my

(Ooh child)

And I also picked up other little things

Like you and I were making love the other night

I thought he was calling out my name

But it evidently was not my name

And I passed him on the steps one day

And he was switching more than I was

(Mmm, mmm, mmm)

And I even caught him holding hands

Walking right down Market Street

You all know what Market Street is

He was so desirable

And this is gonna be such a waste

You know, when you think everything is in place

And what you think you have is not what you really have at all

Because in my case, what I thought I had was not an entire whole man

But a facsimile there of

Wasn't the clothing or nothin', you know, I'm not

There was a certain kind of a way that he talked to me

His voice went up

You know, at first he was talking like "Yeah baby"

And he went "Hello"

And it kept going up and down

And there must have been, I figured, a defect

Of not when he was created

But somewhere down the line, something went wrong

(Another man is beating my time)

(Another man is lovin' mine)

(Another man is beating my time)

(Another man is lovin' mine)

Ooh

Another man is beating my time

(Another man is beating my time)

Another man is lovin' mine

(Another man is lovin' mine)

Another man was beating my time

(Another man was beating my time)

Another man was lovin' mine

(Another man was lovin' mine)

Another man is beating my time

(Beating my time)

Another man was lovin' mine

Lose my mind
