| I went down to some backroom joint
|
| Where I spent the night before
|
| Looking for the girl I love —
|
| She left and wrote her name on my door
|
| She’s got a guilty conscience of her own —
|
| I’ve got to find out why she keeps running on
|
| Why she keeps running on
|
| Nobody gonna steal that woman, nobody for sure
|
| Genevieve, I got to find you, woman, tonight
|
| Deep in shadows of a neon-lit street
|
| You know she gave me the slip
|
| I would love her every day
|
| But she’s quicksilver in my grip
|
| Little darlin', you move too fast —
|
| You’re here one minute, and you’re gone in a flash
|
| Gone in a flash
|
| Nobody gonna steal that woman, nobody for sure
|
| I got to find you
|
| Genevieve, I’m gonna find you tonight
|
| Genevieve, why did you leave?
|
| Genevieve, why did you leave?
|
| Don’t you feel guilty, loving two men?
|
| Well, I’m the one to stand by your side
|
| Oh, baby, yes I love you so
|
| But do you listen to his lies?
|
| Make up your mind, who’s your loving for?
|
| You’re in the middle of a battle with the man at war
|
| Man at war
|
| Nobody gonna steal that woman, nobody for sure
|
| Genevieve, I got to find you, woman, tonight
|
| Genevieve, I’m gonna find you tonight. |
| (Repeat)
|
| Genevieve |
