My Boyfriends Always Had Girlfriends

Written, Arranged, Produced & Performed by Bryan K. Washington
My Boyfriends always had girlfriends
That was never any secret to me
while they was busy slippin slidin on the downlow
I was just as out and free as I could be
There were even times when I hung out
with my man and his lady
I know it sounds shady
But I can't help it if she was just too blind to see
The signs of a clandestine love affair
that was going on right underneath her nose
But I'm not the one who made any kind of commitments between me and her
The woman's not my wife
She's his
He's the one who made a vow to always be true
So don't get upset with me
because my bed's where he chose to be

My Boyfriends always had girlfriends
Betcha now you're beginning to wonder if just perhaps
I may be writing this song to you
Could be but I'm not gonna tell you that
Not at this moment at least
Although you really do need to consider the fact that
sometimes that's the way things be

Your man could be keeping secrets and telling lies coming straight home to you
after making love to another man over there somewhere on the other side
Girl, I know these things for sure to be true
Because for about three years one of your husbands spending his nights right here sleeping next to me

You see I was the one who had him first
So many tears I cried after he met you
I was so in love
Couldn't help myself
Didn't know really what to do
The pain it cut so deep
When I overheard the conversation
He was having with you one night
I wanted to die when he left me for you
the day after Valentines

My boyfriends always had girlfriends
One of you even married my first love
But in the end it wasn't you and him
It was him and me together forever in our hearts until death did us part

My boyfriends
Always had girlfriends
My boyfriends
Always had girlfriends
