Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'll tell you from the start
He's gonna break your heart
You can't stop the lover boy
You can't stop the lover boy
[Verse 2]
He's gonna tell you lies
But you won't realize
Because you can't stop the lover boy
You can't stop the lover boy
[Verse 3]
He's got a thing in his head
It's from a book he's read
It's got a funny title
It tells you how to be vital
He took a lot of time
Over every line
Because it's guaranteed
To satisfy
[Verse 4]
He's gonna knock 'em dead
The boy's got that book read
You can't stop the lover boy
You can't stop the lover boy
[Verse 5]
Right from the clothes he wears
The way he combs his hair
You can't stop him now, because he knows all the tricks
He used to have a problem but he got it fixed
[Verse 6]
He took a small apartment
Above a shoe department
And he could see from his window
All the lights in the street glow
There's a club on the corner
And tonight he will go there
To find a new affair
So all the ladies beware
[Verse 7]
He's got to have a good time in the city
He's got to have a good time every night
He's gonna love 'em and leave 'em cheat 'em and deceive 'em
He's gonna show 'em who's wrong and who's right
[Verse 8]
He's got to have a good time in the city
He's got to have a good time every night
He's gonna love 'em and leave 'em cheat 'em and deceive 'em
He's gonna show 'em who's wrong and who's right
[Verse 9]
He's got to have a good time in the city
He's got to have a good time every night
He's gonna love 'em and leave 'em cheat 'em and deceive 'em
He's gonna show 'em who's wrong and who's right
