Want Ads Lyrics

Wanted, young man single and free

Experience in love preferred

But will accept a young trainee

At home I find myself, lost and all alone

My man is playing the field, the thrill is gone

He stays out all night, says he's with the boys

But lipstick on his collar, perfume on it too

Tells me he's been lying, tell you what I'm gonna do

Chorus:

I'm gonna put it in the want ads

I need a love that's true

Gonna put it in the want ads

My man and I are through

This girl's in misery

Gonna put it in the want ads

Please somebody rescue me

I spend my nights alone, crying bitter tears

Although I cry out loud, nobody really hears

And when I need him most, he's never by my side

He's either playing cards, or drinking at the bars

He thinks that I'm a fool, I'm going to the evening news

Repeat Chorus

Extra extra, read all about it, (4x)

Wanted, young man single and free

Experience in love preferred

But will accept a young trainee

Want ads

Gonna put it in the want ads

Extra Extra

Read all about it

I'm gonna put it in the want ads
