Want Ads

Wanted, young man, single and free

Experience in love preferred, but will accept a young trainee

Oh, I'm gonna put it in the want ads

I need a love that's true

Gonna put it in the want ads

My man and I are through

At home I find myself lost and all alone

My man is playin' the field, the thrill is gone

He stays out all night, says he's with the boys

But lipstick on his collar, perfume on it too

Tells me he's been lyin', tell you what I'm gonna do

Gonna put it in the want ads (Want ads)

This girl's in misery

Gonna put it in the want ads, ha

Somebody rescue me

I spend my nights alone cryin' bitter tears

Although I cry aloud, nobody really hears

And when I need him most, he's never by my side

He's either playin' cards, or drinkin' at the bar

He thinks that I'm a fool, I'm goin' to the evening news

Gonna put it in the want ads (Want ads)

I need somebody new

Gonna put it in the want ads, huh

My man and I are through

Extra, extra, read all about it

Wanted, young man, single and free

Experience in love preferred, but will accept a young trainee

Oh, oh

Lipstick on his collar, perfume on it too

Tells me he's been lyin', I'm goin' to the evening news

Gonna put it in the want ads (Want ads)

I need somebody new

Gonna put it in the want ads, ha

My man and I are through (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Gonna put it in the want ads (Want ads)

Ooh, this girl's in misery (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Gonna put it in the want ads

Please, somebody rescue me (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

Gonna put it in the want ads (Want ads)

I need a love that's true (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
