Promise, 1985, English

Lyrics

Pick up to six lines to make a card.

He don't care where he's been playing
He doesn't hear a word she's saying
She's a fancy girl, so why's she staying?
Hanging on for Mr. Wrong
He doesn't show her that he needs her
She doesn't know his love's a liar
She's a fancy girl, got to be strong
Say, "So long, Mr. Wrong"
Get out on your own girl
Show him how
You can be strong girl
Don't need him now
Run away, pretty girl
Say, "So long, Mr. Wrong"
Run away
