Ah ah listen everybody (body)
Specially you girls (girls)
Is it right to be left alone
When the one you love is never home

I love too hard
My friends sometimes say
But I believe I believe
That a woman should be loved that way

But it hurts me so inside
To see you treat me so unkind
Somebody somewhere tell her
It ain't fair

Can I get a witness (Can I get a witness)
I want a witness (Can I get a witness)
I want a witness (Can I get a witness)
Somebody (Can I get a witness)

Is it right to be treated so bad 
When you give her everything you had
Keep on talking in my sleep 
'Cause I haven't seen my baby all week

Now you kids you all agree
Is that the way it's supposed to be
Let me hear you
Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah

Up early in the morning
With her on my mind
Took to find it out all night
I been cryin'

But I believe a woman's
A man's best friend
I'm gonna stick by her
Till the very end

Well she causes so much misery
How's a gal supposed to be
Somebody somewhere
Tell her it ain't fair

Can I get a witness, can I get a witness
(Can I get a witness), I want a witness
(Can I get a witness), witness, witness
(Can I get a witness), witness, witness
(Can I get a witness)

Everybody knows espscially you girls
That a love can be sad
But my beloved's twice as bad
Now you kids do all agree
That ain't the way it's supposed to be

Let me hear you, let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah
I want a witness (Can I get a witness)
I want a witness (Can I get a witness)
Yeah, I want a witness (Can I get a witness)
Somebody (Can I get a witness)

Is it right to be treated so bad
When you give her everything you had
Keep on talking in my sleep 
'Cause I haven't seen my baby all week

Now you kids you all agree is
That the way it's supposed to be
Let me hear you,
Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah

I want a witness (Can I get a witness)
I want a witness (Can I get a witness)
I want a witness (Can I get a witness)
I want a witness (Can I get a witness)
Witness, witness, yeah, I want a witness.....
