I hear these stories of happy ever afters
I've had my share of tears and pain
Some men just thrive on good times and laughter
While others always have something to gain
 
Well, I look for answers
Look for those reasons
Clauses and causes and what might be right
And what might be wrong, well that's not on my mind
You and I baby we're just wasting our time
 
(chorus)
I got someone on my mind
And she ain't too sweet or kind
Someone on my mind for sure
Yeah, I got someone on my mind
And you know she looks so fine
You know I'd give it up and live it up
anytime for her
 
I've read some books
about men who were great
they built bridges over water,
they put a stop to the hate
But never have I heard
of a man sweet and kind
Men like me just got one thing on their mind
 
And that's not you, or her
Or what's in between
Your legs can shake baby, I am not so keen
I'm not ready to die, ain't too willing to live
But if you want love baby, I'm willing to give
 
I got someone on my mind
And she ain't too sweet or kind
Yeah, someone on my mind for sure
I got someone on my mind
And you know she looks so fine
I know I'd give it up and live it up
anytime for her
 

 
Ja alkup. chorus (biisi silloin One Thing On My Mind)
 
I got one thing on my mind
And that ain't your sweet behind
One thing on my mind for sure
I got one thing on my mind
but girl you look so fine
I know I'd give it up and live it up
anytime for you
 
Jeps..
 
Ongelmallinen ja ei kovin 'jatkuva' idea. Omasta mielestä.
Toinen idea on, että kaksi viimeistä säkeistöä muutettaisiin ns. naisen puheenvuoroksi naisen näkökulmasta miesten kamaluudesta, taasen kun kertosäkeessä mies kehuu, että hänellä on joku kaunis yms. mutta naiset ovat hänelle vain objekteja.
 
Ja tässä se Mies vs Nainen re-write
