Verse 1:
Early in the mornin' 'round 3 a.m.
Lyin' with a girl named Kim
With a glass of gin, sippin' on it
'Bout to hit the skins, now I'm all in
Telephone ring, was a girl named Jane
From around the way
How could I forget, down in my car
"Is it time to quit," runnin' through my head
Chorus:
I ain't tryin' to run around no more
Sick and tired of losin' track of score
Every time I turn around
The same old game another day
Thinkin' I just wanna settle down
Tired of livin' foul, it's over now
Said to myself
"There's got to be another way"
Verse 2:
Later in the day, next day
This was a girl named Trace
Drinkin' ???, spreadin' her legs
Drinkin' ???, callin' my name
Telephone rings she said that
It was a friend on the other end
Sound masculine, couldn't believe
How could I pretend, didn't hurt me
Finally I can see
There's another life for me
I don't wanna live this way
I feel it's time I made a change
I believe I can be (Ho…ho…ho…)
A better man and I don't need
Every woman in the world
I gotta find myself a girl
Chorus (twice)
Got to be another way
Got to be another way, yeah…yeah…yeah…uh-huh, yeah
Mmm, hmm, oh, yeah
There's got to be another way
Another way, another way
Chorus (twice)
