From the very first moment I saw you 00:53

I knew our love would be so strong 01:00

And the very first moment I kissed you 01:07

I knew our joy would last so long 01:13

Then I saw you making love to my best friend 01:20

I didn't know whatever to say 01:27

I saw you making love to my best friend 01:34

So I looked him right in his eyes and I said 01:40

Listen boy 01:45

Won't you take some more, it's what you came for 01:47

And don't mind me, I won't throw you no curves 01:54

Have yourself a ball with my good woman 02:01

Won't you take some more boy, it's more than you deserve 02:07

Won't you take some more boy, it's more than you deserve 02:14

When I saw you hanging 'round the truck stop 02:33

Shining like an angel in the night 02:39

And when I saw you crying like a baby 02:46

I knew you'd have to be my wife 02:53

Then I saw you making love to my best friend 03:00

I didn't know whatever to say 03:06

I saw you making love to my best friend 03:13

So I looked him right in his eyes and I said 03:19

Listen boy 03:23

Won't you take some more, it's what you came for 03:26

And don't mind me, I won't throw you no curves 03:32

Go on and have yourself a ball with my good woman 03:39

Won't you take some more boy, it's more than you deserve 03:45

Won't you take some more boy, it's more than you deserve 03:52

Now I think I'm going to have to leave you 04:35

Because I'm feeling much too weak to share 04:41

And the pie, oh it's cut in too many pieces 04:48

The flavor that I crave is no longer there 04:54

Then I saw you making love to two of my best friends 05:01

I didn't know whatever to say 05:08

I saw you making love to a group of my best friends 05:15

So I looked them right in their eyes and I said 05:21

Listen here, group 05:25

Won't you take some more, it's what you came for 05:28

And don't mind me I won't throw you no curves 05:34

Go on and have yourself a ball with my good woman 05:40

Won't you take some more boys, it's more than you deserve 05:47

Won't you take some more boys, it's more than you deserve 05:54

Won't you take some more boys, it's more than you deserve 05:59

[English]

From the very first moment I saw you
I knew our love would be so strong
And the very first moment I kissed you
I knew our joy would last so long
Then I saw you making love to my best friend
I didn't know whatever to say
I saw you making love to my best friend
So I looked him right in his eyes and I said
Listen boy
Won't you take some more, it's what you came for
And don't mind me, I won't throw you no curves
Have yourself a ball with my good woman
Won't you take some more boy, it's more than you deserve
Won't you take some more boy, it's more than you deserve
When I saw you hanging 'round the truck stop
Shining like an angel in the night
And when I saw you crying like a baby
I knew you'd have to be my wife
Then I saw you making love to my best friend
I didn't know whatever to say
I saw you making love to my best friend
So I looked him right in his eyes and I said
Listen boy
Won't you take some more, it's what you came for
And don't mind me, I won't throw you no curves
Go on and have yourself a ball with my good woman
Won't you take some more boy, it's more than you deserve
Won't you take some more boy, it's more than you deserve
Now I think I'm going to have to leave you
Because I'm feeling much too weak to share
And the pie, oh it's cut in too many pieces
The flavor that I crave is no longer there
Then I saw you making love to two of my best friends
I didn't know whatever to say
I saw you making love to a group of my best friends
So I looked them right in their eyes and I said
Listen here, group
Won't you take some more, it's what you came for
And don't mind me I won't throw you no curves
Go on and have yourself a ball with my good woman
Won't you take some more boys, it's more than you deserve
Won't you take some more boys, it's more than you deserve
Won't you take some more boys, it's more than you deserve
