Put yourself in my place And you wouldn't do the things you do to me If you put yourself in my place You'd know the meaning of misery Sleepless nights, tossing and turning Days and nights of worry and wondering Put yourself in my place Then you will realize why there are tears So many tears in my eyes How can you stand there and tell me That girl was just an old friend, oh baby When I seen you with her Time and time again You tell me she doesn't mean a thing to you But in the meanwhile, baby, just look what I'm going through If you put yourself in my place You wouldn't see her anymore Put yourself in my place You would learn to treat me right Put yourself in my place You wouldn't stay out late at night Put yourself in my place Ohh, darling, just try it Put yourself in my place Put yourself in my place You'd learn to treat me right And you wouldn't stay out late at night
