Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Who can she be?
Oh, with my man
What's she doing with my man?
Oh, my man
He wouldn't, she couldn't
He wouldn't, she shouldn't
Why should he do this to me?
I hate him for lying
I hate her for trying to steal my man from me
Don't do it, don't do it, don't take this other lover
How could you, how could you, how could you love another?
Don't do it, don't do it
I love you, I love you
Tonight, we'll be fine
I'll be yours, you'll be mine tonight
Oh tonight
I'll be your lover, oh tonight
What's the matter with my man?
What can it be?
Oh with my man
I've done everything I can
What's wrong with me?
Oh, my man
He wouldn't, she couldn't
He wouldn't, she shouldn't
Why should he do this to me?
I hate him for lying
I hate her for trying to steal my man from me
Don't do it, don't do it, don't take this other lover
How could you, how could you, how could you love another?
Don't do it, don't do it
I love you, I love you
Tonight, we'll be fine
I'll be yours, you'll be mine tonight
Oh tonight
I'll be your lover, oh tonight

Mooie vrouw en kan ook serieus goed zingen, niet alleen solo maar ook als back up vocals van diverse hits. Zeer ondergewaardeerde talentvolle dame waar we heel trots op zouden moeten zijn β€οΈπ
