INTRO: Eb Ab Eb Ab Eb Ab Eb Ab

#1.
Eb     
Listen everybody, especially you girls..is it right 
 
to be left alone while the one you love is never home?
  Ab
I love too hard, all my friends, sometimes say.
      Eb
But I believe, I believe that a woman should be loved 

that way.
       Bb                     Ab
But it hurts me so inside, to see her treat me so unkind.
    Eb
Somebody, somewhere, tell her it's unfair.

CHORUS:
Eb
Can I get a witness?..(Can I get a witness?)

Can I get a witness?..(Can I get a witness?)
Eb
Can I get a witness?..(Can I get a witness?)

Somebody?..(Can I get a witness?)

      Ab
Is it right to be treated so bad..when you've 

given everything you had?
     Eb
Even tossin' in my sleep cause I haven't seen 

my baby all week.
         Bb               Ab
Now, you chicks do agree, that this ain't the way 

love's supposed to be.
             Eb                           Bb
Well, let me hear and let me hear you say yeah!!

(yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!!)

#3.
Bb              Eb     
Up early in the morning with her on my mind.
Eb
Cause I find out, all night, that I've been cryin'.
        Ab                
But I believe a woman's a man's best friend..
              Eb           
so, I'm gonna stick by her, till the very end.
        Bb                          Ab
But she causes so much misery that, I forget how 

love is supposed to be.
    Eb
Somebody, somewhere, tell her it ain't fair!

CHORUS:
            Eb
Can I get a witttttness?..(Can I get a witness?)
Eb
I want a witness..(Can I get a witness?)..witness, 

witness..(Can I get a witness?)..witness, witness..
 Eb
(Can I get a witness?)

#4.
     Ab          Eb             Ab         Eb
Everybody knows, especially you girls, how love can be sad.
         Eb               
But what pass for the love, that's twice as bad.
         Bb                         Ab
But now, all you chicks agree, that this ain't the way its's 

supposed to be.
