I don`t need nobody
Shaking my tree
Save all your love

Save it just for me
You kiss me but the
Feeling just aint there, no, no

You`re saving the real thing for Jody
And you`re using me just for a smile
I can see through that


You come running, running
Running, running, running to me

Each time Jody makes you cry
Lord, have mercy


You`re nothing but a fool for Jody
Well, I`m a bigger fool to watch the
Tears as they fall from your eyes

All right, now

I`m gonna tell you something

I`m tired of standing in for Jody
(I got to keep you for myself)
Oh, tired of standing in for Jody

(I got to keep you for myself)
You see, a man can`t be a man
Playing second fiddle to someone else


One day, one day soon, baby
You`re gonna wake up and see

Jody`s just using you, baby
The same doggone way


But let me tell you something
I`m so tired, I`ve had enough
Cause you call his name

When we`re making love

Each day, I love you

A little bit more
How do you think I feel
When Jody comes around

And I have to go

I don`t want nobody

Shaking apples in my tree
Save all your love
Give it just for me

Oh, yeah, now

Stop using me

Using me, using me
Lord, have mercy


I`m tired of standing in for Jody
(I got to keep you for myself) oh
I`m so tired of standing in for Jody

(I got to keep you for myself)
A man can`t be a man playing
Second fiddle to someone else


I bet somebody`s waiting out there
Tonight, watching their watch

Trying to see what time it is
Jody was supposed to pick you up
Take you to the movie show


Then he called and
Told you it was too late

I got another date, honey
Can`t see you no more


Don`t you get tired
Of waiting on Jody
Standing in, standing in

And waiting
