[Chorus] Seven whole days And not a word from you Seven whole nights I'm just about through I can't take it, won't take it Can't take it no more I had about enough of you I'd rather be on my own Yes, on my own Darlin', darlin' You know if you cared anything about love You would've been front and center Lovin' me and touchin' me Honey, honey You know if you knew anything about me You would've been much more tender Oh, squeezin' me, caressin' me You could've had about anything you wanted But you messed it up You had to be tough You told your friends You had me wrapped around your finger You were talking kinda cocky Like you had it goin' on All the while you knew That things were kinda shaky You knew that you were wrong Dead wrong to be Mistreating me How can we go on? [Chorus] I'd rather be on my own Yes, on my own Sugar, sugar You know if you knew anything about sweet You would've been talkin' to me Everyday Seven days a week Baby, baby You should've been givin' me A little more time But you were just much too busy Abusin' me and usin' me I would've done about anything You wanted I was there for you I was crazy about you When I was sittin', thinkin' I was kinda special You were runnin' 'round Hittin' every other girl in town How could you love me When you knew you played me funny? You knew that you were wrong Dead wrong to be Mistreating me How can we go on? [Chorus] I'd rather be on my own Yes, on my own Deep in my heart You were number one to start But then you changed You threw my heart away Told your friends that You were runnin' things Why'd it have to be that way? You're wrong Dead wrong Tell me how How can we go wrong? [Chorus] I'd rather be on my own Yes, on my own
