Love Don't Work That Way

I've got a friend all caught up in keepin' up with Mr. Jones
 So high up that ladder he can't see
 His wife left him three weeks ago, he don't even know she's gone
 Hey, buddy, if you're askin' me
 Love don't work, love don't work that way
 It's a two heart assembly line workin' nights and overtime day after day
 Code-a-phone apologies can't fill a woman's needs
 Can't take a lover's place
 Love don't work, love won't work that way
 I used to work eight hour weeks, trying to buy the best for her
 Workin' my life, workin' her love away
 But she met me at the door one night and threw my heart a curve
 All she had to say
 Love don't work, love won't work that way
 It's a two heart assembly line workin' nights and overtime day after day
 Code-a-phone apologies can't fill a woman's needs
 Can't take a lover's place
 Love don't work, love don't work that way
 It's a two heart assembly line workin' nights and overtime day after day
 Code-a-phone apologies can't fill a woman's needs
 Can't take a lover's place
 Love don't work, love don't work that way
 Love don't work that way
 Love don't work that way
 Love don't work that way
