Can I Get a Witness Lyrics


Listen everybody, especially you girls
Is it right to be left alone
While the one you love is never home?Well, I love too hard
All my friends sometimes say
I believe, I believe
That a woman should be loved that wayBut it hurts me so inside
To see her treat me so unkind
Somebody, somewhere tell her it's unfair
Let me hear you, babyCan I get a witness?
Can I get a witness?
(Can I get a witness?)Can I get a witness?
Can I get a witness?
(Can I get a witness?)Is it right to be treated so bad
When you've given everything you had?
Even tossing in my sleep
'Cause I haven't seen my baby all weekNow, you chicks, you do agree
That this ain't the way love's supposed to be
Let me hear you say

(Yeah, yeah)
Say, yeah, yeah
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)Up early in the morning
With her on my mind
Just to find out
All night, baby, I've been cryingBut I believe, I believe
That a woman is a man's best friend
I'm gonna stick by her until the very endBut she causes so much misery
I forgot how its supposed to be
Somebody, somewhere, tell her it's unfair
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
You know what I'm talking aboutCan I get a witness?
Can I get a witness?
(Can I get a witness?)Can I get a witness?
Witness, witness
(Can I get a witness?)Everybody knows, especially you girls
Love can be so sad
But I have a love that's twice as badNow, you chicks, you do agree
That this ain't the way love's supposed to be
Let me hear you say
(Yeah, yeah)
Say, yeah, yeah
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)Now, you chicks, you do agree
That this ain't the way love's supposed to be
Let me hear you say
(Yeah, yeah)
Say, yeah, yeah, listen
(Yeah, yeah)Can I get a witness?
Can I get a witness?
(Can I get a witness?)Can I get a witness?
Witness, witness
(Can I get a witness?)Can I get a witness?
Can I get a witness?
(Can I get a witness?)Can I get a witness?
Witness, witness
(Can I get a witness?)

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Edwin McCain (born January 20, 1970 in Greenville, South Carolina) is an alternative and indie rock guitar player. While his albums are released under his name, he does have a permanent band, referred to as the Edwin McCain Band. Members of the band as of 2007 include Larry Chaney, lead guitar; Pete Riley, rhythm guitar and background vocals; Craig Shields, saxophone and keyboards; Manny Yames, bass guitar; and Peter Alexander, drums.

After signing a contract with the Atlantic Records label Lava Records in 1994, his first major-label album, Honor Among Thieves, was issued in 1995. His second album, Misguided Roses, spawned I'll Be, a major single in 1998. Two more albums (Messenger and Far From Over) followed, but at the end of 2001, he split from Lava. In 2003 he released a collection of acoustic versions of songs both old and new called The Austin Sessions via ATC Records, a Nashville-based independent record label (at which McCain was the first artist signed following its creation in 2001). Mid-2004 saw the arrival of his first studio album in three years, entitled Scream & Whisper, which was released on another indie label, DRT Entertainment.

He has released two DVDs to date. The first was through ATC records in late 2002, called Mile Marker: Songs and Stories from the Acoustic Highway, and it consisted of interviews, live performances, and other material. The other was in late 2004, Tinsel & Tap Shoes. It was his first live concert DVD, recorded at The House of Blues in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

A new CD was released in April, 2006 titled, Lost In America. Edwin recently signed a contract with Vanguard Records. This album (#8) is said to be a true "rock 'n roll" collection.
