Because I Said So movie - Want Ads lyrics

Song by The Honey Cone<br /><br>

Wanted, young man single and free<br>

Experience in love preferred,<br>

But will accept a young trainee<br>

Oh I'm gonna put it in the want ads,<br>

I need a love that's true<br>

Gonna put it in the want ads, my man and I are through<br>

<br>

At home I find myself, lost and all alone<br>

My man is playing the field, the thrill is gone<br>

He stays out all night, says he's with the boys<br>

But lipstick on his collar, perfume on it too<br>

Tells me he's been lying, tell ya what I'm gonna do<br>

I'm gonna put it in the want ads, this girl's in misery<br>

Gonna put it in the want ads, somebody rescue me<br>

<br>

I spend my nights alone, cryin' bitter tears<br>

Although I cry aloud, nobody really hears<br>

And when I need him most, he's never by my side<br>

He's either playing cards, or drinking at the bar<br>

He thinks that I'm a fool, I'm going to the evening news<br>

Gonna put it in the want ads, I need somebody new<br>

Gonna put it in the want ads, my man and I are through<br>

<br>

Extra extra, read all about it,<br>

Wanted, young man single and free<br>

Experience in love preferred,<br>

But will accept a young trainee<br>

<br>

Extra extra, read all about it,<br>

Wanted, young man single and free<br>

Experience in love preferred,<br>

But will accept a young trainee<br>

<br>

Oh I'm gonna put it in the want ads, I need somebody new<br>

Gonna put it in the want ads, my man and I are through<br>

Gonna put it in the want ads, this girl's in misery<br>

Gonna put it in the want ads, please somebody rescue me<br>

<br>

Lipstick on his collar, perfume on it too<br>

Tells me he's been lying, I'm going to the evening new<br>

Gonna put it in the want ads, I need somebody new<br>

Gonna put it in the want ads, my man and I are through<br>

Gonna put it in the want ads, this girl's in misery<br>
