Good evening young man do you know who I am
From the look on your face I think you may
You know my wife much too well you've made my life a living hell
Now I'm the man who comes to stand in your way
All the blame is not on you this kind of game always takes two
But God helps us if you don't hear what I say this very day
I don't like your cheatin' plans better listen while you can
Cause I'm the man who comes to stand in your way
[ instrumental ]
I must have failed her somehow but I won't fail her now
All that matters is that she's come back to stay
So young man I beg of you don't make me do what I can't to do
Cause I'm the man who comes to stand in your way
I'm gonna keep her no matter what she's my wife she's all I got
And before I lose her love I'll see you kid and laid away
So I'm warning you young man but I won't warn you again
Cause I'm the man who comes to stand in your way

Sailor stop your wandering sailor out at sea
Think now of your homeland and the love that waits patiently
Though your home is on the sea and your ship is your new lover
And the stars that send the light are your friends throughout the night
And I know you find your thrills in the seven seas you sail on
Just remember that she's lonesome and waits for your return
[ instrumental ]
Though your home is on the sea and your ship is your new lover...

My heart is shattered can't you see
Cause you no longer care for me
But someday I'm sure you'll see
Loving you did best to me
So stop the world and let me off
I'm tired of going round and round
I've played the game of love and lost
So stop the world and let me off
My dream world tumbled to the ground
The one I lost has let me down
I lost the wonder of her kiss
How could she leave me here like this
So stop the world and let me off...
[ instrumental ]
Stop all this burning up inside
I know her love me has died
I lost the wonder of her kiss
How could she leave me here like this
Oh stop the world and let me off...

Tell her you care each time you speak
Make it her birthday each day of the week
Bring her nice things sugar and spice things
Roses and lollipops and lollipops and roses
One day she'll smile next day she'll cry
Minute to minute you'll never know why
Coax her pet her better yet get her
Roses and lollipops and lollipops and roses
(We try acting grown up but as a rule
We're all little children fresh from school)
So carry her books that's how it starts
Fourteen or forty they're kids in their hearts
Keep them handy flowers and candy
Roses and lollipops and lollipops and roses
(Keep them handy flowers and candy)
Roses and lollipops and lollipops and roses

They're gonna put me in the movies
They're gonna make a big star out of me
We'll make a film about a man that's sad and lonely
And all I gotta do is act naturally
Well I'll bet you I'm a gonna be a big star
Might win an Oscar you can never tell
This movies are gonna make me a big star
Cause I can play the part so well
I hope you'll come to see me in the movies
For then I know that you will plainly see
The biggest fool that's ever hit the big time
And all I gotta do is act naturally
[ instrumental ]
We'll make a scene about a man that's sad and lonely
And begging down upon his bended knee
I'll play the part that I won't need rehearsin'
Cause all I gotta do is act naturally
Well I'll bet you I'm a gonna be a big star...
I hope you'll come to see me in the movies...

I go to the party almost every night
Without me they say the party wouldn't seem right
I'm so lonely feel like I wanna die
But I'll keep them laugin' till I can get home and cry
Keep them laughin' that's what I do
Pretend that I don't care in case it gets back to you
I can't wait for the party to end and everyone say goodbye
I'll keep them laugin' till I can get home and cry
[ instrumental ]
Keep them laughin' that's what I do
Old mem'ries fill my mind while I try to be funny too
I'm afraid some night my feelings will show the root is lonely disguise
But I'll keep them laugin' till I can get home and cry
But I'll keep them laugin' till I can get home and cry

Am I fool number one or am I fool number two
How many other boys have been fooled by you
I suppose that the number is far from being small
But I'll bet that I'm the biggest fool of all
If I had the chance I would do it all again
I'd go down that same old road even knowing at the end
You'd leave me when your heart hears a new love call
So I guess that I'm the biggest fool of all
[ instrumental ]
But fools will walk in where a wise man will not go
I believe that this is truth on the fool who want to know
You know how to say the things that make me fall
And they make me the biggest fool of all
Am I fool number one or am I fool number two...

They say that everybody has a twin someplace
And I believe that what they say is true
For when I look at you I'm looking heaven in the face
The twin of an angel must be you
And I guess everybody feels the way I do
If they love someone the way I worship you
But just a very lucky get a twin of heaven too
The twin of an angel must be you
You never seen the snow white wings there's no halo that you wear
But when I kiss when I hold you close I swear that they were there
No one can make me disbelieve what I believe is true
The twin of an angel must be you
You never seen the snow white wings there's no halo that you wear...
