She, She told me that she loved me.
And like a fool I believed her from the start.
She, She said she'd never hurt me
And then she turned around and broke my heart.

Why am I standing here
Missing her
And wishing she were here?
She only did me wrong
I'm better off alone.
She, She devoured all my sweet love
Took all I had and then she fed me dirt.
She, She laughed when I was crying.
It was such a joke to see the way it hurt.

Why am I standing here
Missing her
And wishing she were here?
She only did me wrong
I'm better off alone.
And now I know just why she
Keeps me hangin' 'round.
She needs someone to walk on
So her feet don't touch the ground.
But I love her
And I need her
I want her
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
She! Girl you really know how to turn a man inside out!
She! Sometimes I wonder how I'm gonna stand around here and take it!

Why am I standing here
Missing her
And wishing she were here?
She only did me wrong
I'm better off alone.
She only did me wrong
I'm better off alone.
