[Verse 1]

How can a woman eat up a man? - How can it be? How can it be?

How can a lady cheat, well she can? - How can it be? How can it be?


[Chorus]

Well you know why and baby I could sit and cry and sigh

And we know the reason why, how it can be

Well you know why and baby I could sit and cry and sigh

And we know the reason why, how it can be


[Verse 2]

How can a loser change to a winner? - How can it be? How can it be?

How can a daydream change to a has-been? -

How can it be? How can it be?


[Chorus]

Well you know why and baby I could sit and cry and sigh

And we know the reason why, how it can be

Well you know why and baby I could sit and cry and sigh

And we know the reason why, how it can be


[Guitar Solo]


[Chorus]

Well you know why and baby I could sit and cry and sigh

And we know the reason why, how it can be

Well you know why and baby I could sit and cry and sigh

And we know the reason why, how it can be


[Verse 3]

How can a tear drop dry up into laughter? -

How can it be? How can it be?

How can a lover, a lover turn it on the other?-

How can it be? How can it be?


[Outro]

Well you know why and baby I could sit and cry and sigh

And we know the reason why, how it can be

Well you know why and baby I could sit and cry and sigh

And we know the reason why, how it can be . . . . aaaaaaahhhhhhhhh
