Song lyrics
Well I tried to tell you baby
Running makes no sense
Now you got me baby
Up against this fence
And ain't that a shame shame shame
Shame shame the way you do
Well it's a shame shame shame
Oh it's a shame on you
Well now you walk out in the evening
Don't even say you're gone
6 o'clock in the morning
You come walking home
And ain't that a shame shame, shame
Shame, shame the way you do
Oh it's a shame shame shame
Hey it's a shame on you
Well I be sitting there waiting
Listen everybody
Crying for you to come home
Especially you girls
When I wake up baby
Is it right to be left alone
I'm sitting here all alone
While the one you love is never home
And ain't that a shame shame shame
I love too hard my friends sometimes say
Shame shame the way you do
But I believe I believe that a woman should be loved that way
Well it's a shame shame shame
But it hurts me so inside to see her treat me so unkind
Oh it's shame on you
Somebody somewhere tell her it's unfair
