Right Next Door

He can hear us, we were fighting right next door
He could hear the angry words, through that thin walls
'Round midnight, my baby called me unfaithful woman
And I knew right there the axe was gonna fall
It's because of him
'Cause of him

My baby said, who is he? I mumbled low
He said, woman, don't you lie to me no more?
And he was listening through those thin walls, silently
As I called out his name, he was right next door

It's because of him
'Cause of him
Because of him
Because of him

Oh, he was right next door, and he was such a strong persuader
I was just another notch on his guitar
He made me lose the man who really love me
Oh, he made me break my baby's heart
Oh, wow, oh, oh, oh, ah

At daybreak, my baby packed and said goodbye
Slammed the door and just walked away
Right next door, he had to hear me start to cry
He wouldn't even come to me and nothing to say

And it's because of him
Because of him
Because of him
You sexy thing

He was right next door, and he was such a strong persuader
I was just another notch on his guitar
Lord, he made me lose a man who really love me
Oh, oh, oh, he made me break my baby's heart

Tell you, he was right next door
I was just another notch
Lord, he made me lose
Oh, he made me break my daddy's heart

Tell you, he was right next door and he was such a strong persuader
I was just another notch on his guitar
Lord, he made me lose a man who really love me
Oh, he made me break my baby's heart
Oh, he was next door
