Why'D You Gotta

Why'd I gotta see you 
Dancin' in the courtyard 
With another girl on your arm
Why'd I gotta see you
Dancin' round the fountain with her
You used to be my baby
Stand by my side
Give me your shoulder for the tears that I cried
Why'd I gotta see you 
Dancin' round the fountain with her
Oh and just a couple days ago
I took a drive
Had you sittin' pretty by my side
I took some notice when
Your eyes went and took a wander
You saw that long leg beauty takin a stroll
So busy lookin couldn't see my eyes roll
Why'd you go a lookin' made me take an awfully sharp turn

Then there was the time when you went away
Said you were workin both the night and the day
So I called the hotel and they transferred me to your room
A sweet and sultry tone had answered the phone
You're talkin' different from you talk at home
How'd you change your voice
I've never heard it soundin' so high

But the one occasion that got me the most
Was when I got you lookin' white as a ghost
I got home early and I guess that you did too
Oh the second that my keys started turning that lock
I saw the window open and out she dropped
It's funny that the cleaner would clean without any clothes

So why'd I gotta see you 
Dancin' in the courtyard 
With another girl on your arm
Why'd I gotta see you 
Dancin' round the fountain with her
You used to be my baby
Stand by my side
Give me your shoulder for the tears that I cried
Why'd I gotta see you 
Dancin' round the fountain with her
Why'd I gotta see you 
Dancin' round the fountain with her
Why'd I gotta see you 
Dancin' round the fountain with her
