Belinda was mine ′til the time
that I found her holdin′
Jim and lovin′ him .

Then Sue came along,
loved me strong,
that′s what I thought,
but me and Sue,
that died, too.

Don′t know that I will
but until I can find me,
a girl who′ll stay and
won′t play games behind me.

I′ll be what I am,
a solitary man,
a solitary man.

I′ve had it to here - being where love′s a small word,
a part time thing, a paper ring.
I know it′s been done
havin′ one girl who loves you,
right or wrong,
weak or strong.

Don′t know that I will
but until I can find me,
a girl who′ll stay and
won′t play games behind me.

I′ll be what I am,
a solitary man,
a solitary man.
