i can't seem to find the lyrics offhand, but Cash's version of "Solitary Man" is a classic

edit: here we go...had to look up Neil Diamond's lyrics to find 'em:

Melinda was mine
'Til the time
That I found her
Holding Jim
Loving Him

Then Sue came along
Loved me strong
That's what I thought
Me and Sue
But that died too

Don't know that I will
But until I can find me
The girl who'll stay
And won't play games behind me
I'll be what I am
A solitary man
Solitary man

I've had it to here
Bein' where
Love's a small word
Part-time thing
Paper ring

I know it's been done
Havin' one
Girl who'll love me
Right or wrong
Weak or strong

Don't know that I will
But until I can find me
The girl who'll stay
And won't play games behind me
I'll be what I am
A solitary man
Solitary man
