The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
All you wanted was a one night stand
The fire, the wine, and the touch of a man
I fell in love an ruined all your plans
What'll you do about me?
Imagine the faces on your high class friends
When I bang on the door and I beg to come in
I'll scream "Come on, love me again"
What'll you do about me?
Well, you can change your number
You can change your name
You can ride like hell on the midnight train
That's all right, mama, that's o.k.
What'll you do about me?
I picture your neighbors when you try to explain
That good ol' boy standin' out in the rain
With his nose on the window pane
What'll you do about me?
What in the world are you plannin' to do
When a man comes over just to visit with you
And I'm on your porch with a 2 by 2
Lady, what'll you do about me?
Well, you can call your lawyer
You can call the fuzz
You can sound the alarm
Wake the neighbors up
Ain't no way to stop a man in love
So, what'll you do about me?
All you wanted was a one night stand
The fire, the wine, and the touch of a man
But I fell in love and baby, here I am
What'll you do about me?
What'll you do about me?
What'll you do about me?
