Joe Tex - The Love You Save (May Be Your Own) lyrics

People, I've been misled And I've been afraid I've been hit in the head And left for dead I've abused And I've been accused I been refused a piece of bread But I ain't never In my life before Seen so many love affairs Go wrong as I do today I want you to stop And find out what's wrong Get it right Or just leave love alone Because the love you save today Maybe will-l-l-l be your own Listing to me I've been pushed around I've been lost and found I've been given til sundown To get out of town I've been taken outside And I've been brutalized And I've had to always be the one to smile and apologize But I ain't never In my life before Seen so many love affairs Go wrong as I do today So stop And find out what's wrong Get it right Or please leave love alone Because the love you save today Maybe will-l-l-l be your own
