Victim – Candi Staton – letras

When I started outIt was just a matter of seeing you everydayI looked forward to the timesWhen you would come my way oh yesI longed just to see youWore a smile just to greet youI’m a victim of the very song I singYou gave me a brand new reasonTo start fixing up my faceHaving cocktails at your favorite placeA table just for twoGot rid of lonelinessNow that I have youI became a victimOf the very song I singI told you young hearts run freeWhen I didn’t listen to myselfEngulfed by the power of loveI just fell right in, right on inWasn’t hardly worried about tomorrowYou’re the futureAs long as I was being satisfiedI didn’t need nothing elseAnd now alreadyI’m being left at homeI wonder what it is thatMakes a man leave a girl so all aloneAnother woman is the thingRunning aroundIt just don’t seem to changeVictim, victim, victim, victimI’m a victim of the very song I singWhy don’t you practice what you preach?That’s what everybody’s telling meIf my advice is good for othersIt’s good to be good for meSo I try to occupy my mindKeep myself busy all the timeBut the more I try to doThe more I keep thinking of youOh wellI guess I’ll end up in the lost and foundLooks like love and meWe done fought another roundAnother woman is his claim to fameAnd I’m lucky if I canBreak these chainsVictim, victim, victim, victimI’m a victim of the very song I singHelp me sayDo, do, wapOh! oh! do, do wapOh! oh! do, do wapOoooooHelp me sayDo, do wapOh! oh! do, do wapOh! oh! do, do wapOooooo
