Marvin Gaye — Can I Get a Witness?

[Verse 1] Ah listen everybody, especially you girls Is it right to be left alone While 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 her treat me so unkind Somebody, somewhere tell her it's unfair [Verse 2] Can I get a witness? Can I get a witness? Can I get a witness? Somebody Is it right to be treated so bad When you've given everything you had? Even tossing in my sleep 'Cause I haven't seen my baby all week Now, you chicks do agree That this ain't the way love's supposed to be Let me hear you, let me hear you say yeah, yeah [Verse 3] Up early in the morning with her on my mind Just to find out all night that I've been crying But I believe a woman's a man's best friend So I'm going to stick by her till the very end But she cause so much misery That I forget how love's supposed to be Somebody, somewhere, tell her it ain't fair Can I get a witness? [Verse 4] Can I get a witness? I want a witness Witness, witness, witness, witness Everybody knows, especially you girls But love can be sad But half of a love is twice as bad Now, all you chicks agree That this ain't the way it's supposed to be Let me hear you, let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah [Outro] I want a witness I want a witness Come on witness I want a witness Just a little bit louder Louder Oh yeah
