They're all thinking I'm a playboy I'm with a new girl every night They don't think they can't hurt me none But they don't talk about you much no more Some say I'm right some say I'm wrong But as far as I'm concerned it matters less Cause I've got my own life to live So I'm gonna do what I think's best Because the part of you you left behind will never let me fall in love again But the part of you that's gone from me I've got to satisfy cause I'm a man [ fiddle ] So I'll keep on what I'm doing until you decide to come or go At least that way I know no one can look at me and say I told you so I'm fine all day from nine to five but get lonely when the evening whistle blows So I'm gonna fight my hurt in the only way girl that I know Because the part of you you left behind... Yes the part of you that's gone from me I'll have to satisfy cause I'm a man
