(Mark Spiro/Don Schlitz)



You say it's been coming on

That he's been out running 'round

You say that when he does come home

He only puts you down

Well you ask me my opinion

Of what I think you should do

As far as I can see there's just

One road left for you

Oh don't give up cause it's hard to hear

You'll never know your strength until you face your fear



You go girl, cause you know girl

Where he is ain't where you belong

If you stay girl, you will pay girl

He's only gonna do you wrong

You can try girl, but you'll cry girl

Cause he ain't worth the holding on

So you go girl

Cause you're already gone



You tell me that you're so afraid

To be out there on your own

To throw away the life you've made

And face the world all alone

I've been in your shoes and I've cried those tears

The best that you can do is walk away from here



So you go girl, cause you know girl

Where he is ain't where you belong

If you stay girl, you will pay girl

He's only gonna do you wrong

You can try girl, but you'll cry girl

Cause he ain't worth the holding on

So you go girl

Cause you're already gone



If he only makes you cry

What kind of life is that

If he don't know the meaning of

To honor and respect



Oh you can try girl, but you'll cry girl

Cause he ain't worth the holding on

So you go girl

Cause you're already gone

If you stay you will pay girl, oh yes you will, yes you will

Yeah, back where you belong

You just go girl, yeah
