Lyrics:

Can I Get A Witness?
Marvin Gaye
Written by: Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland, Jr.

Listen everybody, especially you girls
Is it right to be left alone
While the one you love is never home?
I love too hard, my friends sometimes say
But I believe, I believe
That a woman should be loved that way
But it hurts me so inside
To see her treat me so unkind
Somebody, somewhere tell her its unfair

Can I get a witness?
Can I get a witness?
Can I get a witness?
Somebody

Is it right to be treated so bad
When youve given everything you had?
Even tossin in my sleep
Cause I havent seen my baby all week
Now, you chicks do agree
That this aint the way loves supposed to be
Let me hear, let me hear you say yeah, yeah

Up early in the morning with her on my mind
Just to find out all night that Ive been cryin
But I believe a womans a mans best friend
So Im gonna stick by her till the very end
But she causes so much misery I forget how
Love is supposed to be
Somebody, somewhere, tell her it aint fair

Can I get a witness?
I want a witness
Witness, witness
Witness, witness

Everybody knows, especially you girls
Love can be sad
But I have a love thats twice as bad
Now all you chicks agree
That this aint the way itss supposed to be
Let me hear you, let me hear you say yeah, yeah

I want a witness
I want a witness
I want a witness
I want a witness
