Lyrics
Just A Jealous Guy
Steve Domer 2014
I drove to see you the other night
Someone's car was parked so I turned off my lights
I sat and waited and I listened to the radio
Later on, about a half past ten
Walkin' out the door came my best friend
The things one can imagine when you just don't know
'Cause I'm just a jealous guy
And I've never ever lied to you
But when I see you with other guys, sometimes I come unglued
But I have always believed you'd always be true
But I'm still jealous too
Once he left I knocked on the door
We greeted and we hugged like we did before
And then I asked, if you just had some company
You said no, you've been home alone
Just talking to some old friends on the phone
That's the moment that I knew that you lied to me
'Cause I'm just a jealous guy
And I've never ever lied to you
But when I see you with other guys, sometimes I come unglued
But I have always believed you'd always be true
But I'm still jealous too
Ooh ooh, my my, I'm just a jealous guy
ooh ooh, my my
And what's the reason for such secrecy?
Please don't tell me infidelity
I've got a case of jealousy over you
In a week or two, my the time did fly
I came home from work and boy was I surprised
Everyone was there celebrating my big 4 - 0
She had planned it with my best friend
To keep it a surprise, they had to pretend
The things one can imagine when you just don't know
'Cause I'm just a jealous guy
And I've never ever lied to you
But when I see you with other guys, sometimes I come unglued
But I have always believed you'd always be true
But I'm still jealous too
Ooh ooh, my my, I'm just a jealous guy
Ooh ooh, my my, I'm just a jealous guy
Ooh ooh, my my, I'm just a jealous guy
