I've got somethin' to tell you baby, don't let it break
your heart
So long together, now we've got to part,
because I'm tired, of findin' frogs for snakes
After these long many years, babe I just see my great
mistake
You told me that you loved me, said you loved me all
your life
I caught you 'round the corner, tellin' that same lie
twice
You know I'm tired, of findin' frogs for snakes
After these long many years, babe I just see my great
mistake
Once I used to love you, I couldn't help myself
Found out you'd given your love baby, to somebody
else
You know I'm tired, of findin' frogs for snakes
After these long many years, babe I just see my great
mistake
Ain't gonna be your dog no more, little girl!
Because now I see my great mistake
Now listen little girl, you don't worry my mind any
mo'
Find out you're actin' funny, I'm sure gonna let you
go
Because I'm tired, of findin' frogs for snakes
After these long many years, I just see my great
mistake
