Can they say it's a waste
and you say it's for thinking
and you can take this from me
Sitting and waiting by my telephone
Because he walks like a man
I'm gonna follow this golden rule
I see your white paper coats
I don't miss you only because
thats the way I know you'll never leave me
how come he told me to stay
and you can take this from me
and when I know your all alone
sitting and waiting by my telephone
I got no time to see, that damn dimond ring
and away she goes, I gotta let her go
cause he walks like a man, he talks like a fool
I know this by my golden rule
tell your lady you know you'll never see me
I see your ways and your white paper skirts
I don't miss you only because I know thats the way
I know you'll never leave me
He walks like a man he talks like a fool
I know this by my golden rule
He tells his baby he never sees me
I don't miss you only because
I know its the only way you'll never leave me
I don't miss you because thats the only way I know you'll never leave me
