Lyrics The Double Cross - Album Version (Stereo) - David Ruffin

Let me tell you all about it
Sometimes I think about it.
And my poor heart wants to die about it,
Oh, about the sweet, sweet love I lost,
And the way I got double crossed
By a guy who was my friend,
I see him now and then but
I pretend I'm doing fine,
When I'm about to lose my mind.
Ooh you know I told my father all about it,
And he just jumped up and walked all around
Laughed out loud all about it.
He said the love I think I lost
And the way I got double double crossed,
By a guy who was my friend,
If I ever see him agian.
Tell him he can't really win,
'Cuz she'll be back to see me again
Ooh Love, oh, now my father, he may know best.
But I forgot, I forgot to tell him about alllll the rest.
I recieved an invitation about a month ago, yes I did.
To a wedding, to a wedding I decided not to go.
'Cuz I couldn't stand the pain,
I would have been so ashamed,
To see the girl I love, walk away and take another man,
That was the doubt,
I sit down and ask for mother all about it,
Yes I did,
Oh, I sat down and I talked to my father all about it
About the love I think I lost,
And the way I got double double double double crossed.
By a guy who was my friend,
If I never see him again tell him she'll be back again.
Ooh, ya, about the double cross,
Oh baby, about the double crosss
Oh baby about the double cross ya
I don't want to lose a good thing,
Thats why I sit down 24 hours
And I asked my mother all about it
