It's a shame, the way you mess around with your man.
It's a shame, the way you hurt me.
It's a shame, the way you mess around with your man.
I'm sitting all alone, by the telephone,
Waitin' for your call, when you don't call at all!

It's a shame (Shame, ooh-ooh-ooh), the way you mess around with your man.
It's a shame (Shame, ooh-ooh-ooh), the way you play with my emotions!
It's a shame (Shame, ooh-ooh-ooh), the way you mess around with your man.
You're like a child at play on a sunny day.
First you play with love, and then you throw it away!

Why do you use me, play to confuse me?
How can you stand to be so cruel?
Why don't you free me from this prison?
For I served my time as your fool!

It's a shame (Shame, ooh-ooh-ooh), the way you mess around with your man.
It's a shame (Shame, ooh-ooh-ooh), the way you hurt me!
It's a shame (Shame, ooh-ooh-ooh), the way you mess around with your man.
I tried to stick with you, show you love so true,
But you won't appreciate the love we try to make!

Oh, it's a, got to be a shame, uh!

Why do you use me, play to confuse me?
How can you stand to be so cruel?
Why don't you free me from this prison?
For I served my time as your fool!

Got to be a shame (Shame, ooh-ooh-ooh), the way you mess around with your man!
Oh, it's a shame (Shame, ooh-ooh-ooh), the way you hurt me!
Oh, it's a shame, baby, baby (Shame, ooh-ooh-ooh), the way you mess around with your man!
You got my heart in chains, and I must complain!
I just can't think of cryin', oh, lookin' at the time!

Oh...ho...ho! (Shame, ooh-ooh-ooh)
It's a shame, it's a shame (Shame, ooh-ooh-ooh) the way you hurt me, yeah!
Ooh... (Shame, ooh-ooh-ooh)
Gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta be a shame, oh, yeah!

Ooh...!
