Lyrics You Shoulda Kept A Spare - Ray Parker Jr.

Ow! You shoulda kept a spare
Baby: a back up love affair (I tried to warn you)
Mmm (I tried to warn you)
You shoulda kept a spare
Yeah sugar: a back up love affair (I tried to warn you)
Ow! (I tried to warn you)
You turned away all prospective lovers
Because you thought what you had was true
You turned them down baby
Until the day you came home to a party
That you weren't invited to
Yes you did baby
Now you need affection but there's
No one around who cares
You should have been more well prepared
Ow! You shoulda kept a spare
Baby: a back up love affair (I tried to warn you)
Mmm (I tried to warn you)
You shoulda kept a spare
Yeah sugar: a back up love affair (I tried to warn you)
Ow! (I tried to warn you)
Ow! If you read the back of a dollar it says
In God we trust
You better believe it
'Cause if you plan on trusting anyone else
With your love
A little back up is a must
Did you think it was impossible for you
To be told a lie
Why'd you let it catch you by surprise (catch you by surprise)
Ow! You shoulda kept a spare
Yeah, a little back up love affair (I tried to warn you)
Oh baby (I tried to warn you)
You shoulda kept a spare (a spare baby)
A little back up love affair (I tried to warn you)
A bit of inurance, sugar (I tried to warn you)
Ow! You shoulda kept a spare
Just like he did
G'on get some more (I tried to warn you)
He don't have to know (I tried to warn you)
It's a whole lot easier to say goodbye
If you've got a little something on the side
(I tried to warn you)
Oh yeah (I tried to warn you)
You shoulda kept a spare
Yeah baby, a back up love affair (I tried to warn you)
Ow! (I tried to warn you)
So if you're lonely baby I'll be there
To be your back up love affair (I tried to warn you)
Yeah, (I tried to warn you)
I said, if you're lonely baby I'll be there (I tried to warn you)
Whoooo (I tried to warn you)
Woman know your stuff
Do it baby
Get yourself some love
Go get someone
