I'll tell you from the start

He's gonna break your heart

You can't stop the lover boy

You can't stop the lover boy



He's gonna tell you lies

But you won't realize

Because you can't stop the lover boy

You can't stop the lover boy



He's got a thing in his head

It's from a book he's read

It's got a funny title,

It tell you how to be vital

He took a lot of time

Over every line

Because it's guaranteed

To satisfy



He's gonna knock 'em dead

The boy's got that book read

You can't stop the lover boy

You can't stop the lover boy



Right from the clothes he wears

The way he combs his hair

You can't stop him now, because he knows all the tricks

He used to have a problem but he got it fixed

He took a small apartment

Above a shoe department

Andd he could see from his window

All the lights in the street glow

There's a club on the corner

And tonight he will go there

To find a new affair

So all you ladies beware



He's got to have a good time in the city

He's got to have a good time every night

He's gonna love 'em and leave 'em, cheat and decieve 'em

He's gonna show 'em who's wrong and who's right
