4. Never Before (3:56)
Somebody, somebody
Come to my side
I'm tired, I'm crying
I'm sick inside
My woman, that woman
Just wasn't right
Help me now, please my friend
I never felt so bad before
Never never before
So funny, so funny
Just like a show
One name, two people
All in a row
Somebody, somebody
Someone must go
Help me now, please my friend
I never felt so bad before
Never never before
I was hurt when I was younger
By a woman who was cold
She took my name
She took my body
And she threw away my soul
Can't hide, I can't hide
My misery
I know my sorrow
Won't set me free
She did it, d'you see
She did it to me
Help me now, please my friend
I never felt so bad before
Never never before
Come to my side
I'm tired, I'm crying
I'm sick inside
My woman, that woman
Just wasn't right
Help me now, please my friend
I never felt so bad before
Never never before
So funny, so funny
Just like a show
One name, two people
All in a row
Somebody, somebody
Someone must go
Help me now, please my friend
I never felt so bad before
Never never before
I was hurt when I was younger
By a woman who was cold
She took my name
She took my body
And she threw away my soul
Can't hide, I can't hide
My misery
I know my sorrow
Won't set me free
She did it, d'you see
She did it to me
Help me now, please my friend
I never felt so bad before
Never never before
