Intro: B-F#-E (2x)
B                              F#              E
It was only last june when her old man ran away
B                           F#                        E
She couldn't stop cryin' , she knew he was goin' to stay
B              F#              E 
10:35 on a lonely friday night
B                                F#              E
she was standin' by the fire--umm-- she was lookin' alright
 
B                                F#              
I asked her if she wanted to dance and she said,
E
All she wanted was a good man who wanted to
B               F#                E
know if I thought I was qualified
 
B               F#                E
I said baby don't waste your time,
B               F#                E
I know what's on your mind
E                       F#         E
I may be qualified for a one night stand
E                       F#
But I can never take the place of your man
 
B-F#-E (2x)  
 
It hurt me so bad when I saw the tears in her eyes
She was all he ever wanted and now she wanted to die
He left her with a baby and another one on the way
She couldn't stop cryin' she knew he was goin' to stay
 
She asked me if we couldn't be friends and I said
O Honey baby that's OK you know and
I know know know you wouldn't be satisfied.
 
I said baby don't waste your time
and I know what's on your mind
I may be qualified for a one night stand
but I could never take the place of your man
 
-Solo- (B-F#-E 4x,)
 
I may be qualified for a one night stand
But I could never take the place of your man
