You could have had me baby,
but you threw your chance away.
You thought you had a rain check,
but there ain't no game today, well good mornin' baby,
I wanna know,
what can I do for you, yeah.
Yeah.
You see, I don't seem to recall
that we'd sign up any kind of rendezvous.
Now,
I want you to hear this, honey.
You remember one night, baby, I was standing,
standing in the rain, yeah, and you never,
you never asked me in, and I didn't even complain,
no, no, no, no, and you know, I was broke,
Wet, tired, and hungry
But you threw me right
on out the door
Yes you did, yes you did, yes you did
Now it's my turn to tell you
I just can't, I just can't,
just can't use you anymore
Oh
Lord, I'm so glad, so glad you're gone
this time around
Yeah, the last time I saw you
You were evil, evil as you could be
My sister had big eyes for you
But you had no eyes for me
You, you could have had me baby
But it's too bad, it's too bad
It's too bad because you
need me now
Don't you think I don't know
you need me now
I'm so sorry, baby, cause I ain't about to take you back,
take you back no time, no place,
no how, no I ain't, baby, no I ain't,
baby, no, uh -uh, no, no.
I used to love you, baby
But you're playin' so
hard to get
So I found me somebody
Who made you so easy to forget
Be cause of you,
you could've had me, baby
Way back when the time was so right,
so right, so right
Now I know you're starving,
you're starving for some of my lovin'
It's too late, it's too late,
cause I've lost my appetite
So
Oh
Now I want you to pay special attention to this,
you could have had me baby, in 1973.
Now I'm older and I'm wiser and you don't look so good to me no more,
no more, you could have had me baby
Way back, way back in 1968, yeah,
yeah, yeah
But I got news, I got news for you baby
Oh my lord, oh you just
came around too late
Yes you did, it's too late baby,
oh yeah
