When we got married All of our friends were there Ev'ryone said We were a happy pair Together we would have A home, sweet home But listen They didn't know, uh! You had an outside affair goin' on Listen! Listen! It's too, late (late) Lord, too late (to late to wake up) It's too late, it's too late (It's too late) Let me tell ya We've got to break-up (We've got to break-up) Lord, you stayed away too long (Temptation was) too strong It's too, late (for you) Hey, listen! I've have a message for you! Listen to me! Spoken: You know a friend of mine Called me the other day By the name of Joe Tex He said, 'Don, try to *'Hold To What You Got' But *'Ninety-Nine and a Half' won't do Like Wilson Pickett said I tried, *'A Lover's Prayer' Like Otis Redding said It just didn't work out I'm gonna follow Solomon Burke's advise *'Tonight's The Night' It's all over, honey 'Cause I need someone To *'Stand By Me' Like Ben E. King said The rest of my life Listen! Baby! Baby! It's too (late) You're too late to wake up (It's too late to wake up) And let me tell ya somethin' else! It's too late (It's too late) (now!) I found myself a full time love Girl, you know You stayed away too long Temptation was too strong It's too late Spoken: And listen! I don't want you to come Knockin' on my do'! (Too late) Listen! May find myself, somebody To let me sleep late ev'ry Sunday mo'nin And bring me my breakfast to my bed And when I have a headache She comes, she rubs my achin' head An you listen! She comfort me So sweet 'n frail An let me tell you somethin', Honey! FADES- You know, you just not qualified! I said, you're not qualified! You're just not qualified to do it! ~ Don't Song Title Reference: 1. Hold What You've Got - Joe Tex Dec 19, 1964+ (#5 pop) 2.
