Melinda was mine 'til the time
That I found her
Holding Jim, loving him
Then Sue came along, loved me strong
That's what I thought
Me and Sue, but that died too

Don't know that I will but until I can find me
The girl who will stay who won't play games behind me
And I'll be what I am
A solitary man
Solitary man

I've had it to here bein' where
Love's a small word
Part-time thing, paper ring
I know it's been done havin' one
Girl who love's you
Right or wrong, weak or strong

Don't know that I will but until I can find me
The girl who will stay who won't play games behind me
I'll be what I am
A solitary man
Solitary man

Don't know that I will but until I can find me
The girl who will stay who won't play games behind me
I'll be what I am
A solitary man
Solitary man
Um um um

Solitary man.....
