David Ruffin - The Double Cross lyrics

[Verse 1] Let me tell you all about it Sometimes, I think about it And my poor heart wants to die about it ohh About this sweet sweet love i lost And the way i got double crossed By a guy who was my friend I see him now and then, but I pretend im doing fine, but im about to lose my mind Ohhh You know i told my father all about it And he just jumped up and walked all around and laughed all Around all about it He said "the love I think I lost" And the way i got double double crossed By a guy who was my friend, if I ever see him again Tell him he can't really win Cause she'll be back to see me again! Ohhhh love, ohhhhh Not now my father, made no vest [Verse 2] But I forgot, I forgot to tell him all the rest I received an invitation about a month ago, to a wedding I decided not to go Cause couldn't stand the pain, I would have been so ashamed To see the girl I love, walk away to take another name That's why I sit down, sit down and ask my brother all about it Yes I did Ohh I sit down and I talk to my father all about it About the love I think I lost, and the way I got double double Double, double crossed By a guy who was my friend If I ever see him again Know that she'll be back again Ohhhh Not the double cross Ohh baby About the double cross Ohhhh, baby not the double cross I don't wanna lose a good thing That's right sit down, 24 hours
