She's all alone, just lost another one 
Met him yesterday and he's already gone 
And though tonight she'll swear it was the last time 
A smiling 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 everybody's 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 everybody's 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
