Lyrics

Lying, cheating, hurting, that's all you seem to do
Messing around with every guy in town
Putting me down for thinking of someone new
Always the same, playing your game
Drive me insane, trouble is gonna come to you
One of these days and it won't be long
You'll look for me, but baby, I'll be gone
This is all I gotta say to you, woman

Your time is gonna come
Your time is gonna come
Your time is gonna come
Your time is gonna come

Made up my mind to break you this time
Won't be so fine, it's my turn to cry
Do what you want, I won't take the brunt
It's fading away, can't feel you anymore
Don't care what you say 'cause I'm going away to stay
Going to make you pay for that great big hole in my heart
People talking all around, watch out, woman, no longer
Is the joke gonna be on my heart
You been bad to me, woman, but it's coming back home to you

Your time is gonna come
Your time is gonna come
Your time is gonna come
Your time is gonna come

Your time is gonna come (find, find my baby)
Your time is gonna come (find my, find my)
Your time is gonna come (find the Lord)
Your time is gonna come (oh, oh, oh)
Your time is gonna come (find my baby, oh)
Your time is gonna come
Your time is gonna come
