Steppenwolf - Everybody's Next One Lyrics

She's all alone, she's lost another one
Met him yesterday, now he's already gone

And though tonight she'll swear it was the last time
A smilin' face will come that knows the right line

And then she'll do all the right things with the wrong guy
And when he's gone, next day she'll sit and wonder why

She doesn't know why she's everybodys next one
'Cause she's afraid that the truth is gonna hurt some
All the pity in the world, ain't gonna help none
She has to realize that to keep one, her ways have to change some

She tries too hard, and she comes on too strong
Digs herself too much, and thinks she can't be wrong

She's too impressed by things that do not matter
To be the queen of hearts is what she's after

And then she'll do all the right things with the wrong guy
And when he's gone, next day she'll sit and wonder why

She doesn't know why she's everybodys next one
'Cause she's afraid that the truth is gonna hurt some
All the pity in the world ain't gonna help none
She has to realize that to keep one, her ways have to change some

She doesn't know why she's everybodys next one
'Cause she's afraid that the truth is gonna hurt some
All the pity in the world ain't gonna help none
She has to realize that to keep one, her ways have to change some
