Can I Get A Witness
Stevie Wonder Lyrics

Ah ah listen everybody (body), specially you girls (girls)
Hey everyone, pay attention, especially the ladies.

Is it right to be left alone when the one you love is never home
Is it fair to be abandoned by the person you love?

I love too hard my friends sometimes say
My friends think I love too intensely.

But I believe I believe that a woman should be loved that way
But I believe that a woman deserves to be loved with passion.

But it hurts me so inside to see you treat me so unkind
It hurts me deeply to see you treat me poorly.

Somebody somewhere tell her it ain't fair
Someone needs to tell her that this isn't right.

Can I get a witness (Can I get a witness)
Can someone vouch for me? (Can someone verify my story?)

Is it right to be treated so bad when you give her everything you had
Is it justifiable to be treated poorly despite giving everything to someone?

Keep on talking in my sleep 'cause I haven't seen my baby all week
I keep talking in my sleep because I miss my significant other who I haven't seen in a week.

Now you kids you all agree is that the way it's supposed to be
Do you all agree that this is how it's supposed to be for someone in love?

Let me hear you, let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah
Say 'yeah, yeah, yeah' if you agree with me.

Up early in the morning with her on my mind
I wake up early in the morning with thoughts of her.

Took to find it out all night I been cryin'
I've been crying all night after finding out something about her.

But I believe a woman's a man's best friend
But I believe that a woman can be a man's closest confidant.

I'm gonna stick by hr till the very end
I'm going to stand by her through thick and thin.

Well she causes so much misery how's a gal supposed to be
But she causes so much pain, how is a girl supposed to act?

Can I get a witness, can I get a witness
Can someone back me up? (Can someone verify what I'm saying?)

Everybody knows especially you girls
Everyone knows, especially women.

That a love can be sad but my beloved's twice as bad
Love can be sorrowful, but my love is particularly painful.

Now you kids do all agree that ain't the way it's supposed to be
Do you all agree that this isn't how love is meant to be?

I want a witness (Can I get a witness)
I need someone to vouch for me. (Can someone corroborate what I'm saying?)
