You gotta snazzy new car in your driveway,
Expensive new clothes on your back
Every short skirt on the highway
Has spent time in your bachelor pad
We dance and you look o'er my shoulder
And make eyes at somebody else
You swear that you're not,
But you know that's a crock
'Cause you only care for yourself
Your attitude stinks and I hate it
You're arrogant, cocky and rude
You're selfish, conceited and jaded
Everything's all about you;
You think that I'm lucky to have you
You think you're so handsome, so what?
I'm calling you out 'cause I don't need this crap
I'm gettin' myself out of Dodge
'Cause you don't know love from Shinola
With you, love is not what I found
A woman needs someone to hold her
Not someone to just lay her down
I want someone I can count on, a cool head,
A warm heart and shoulder to cry on,
Rely on, today and from now on
But you don't know love from Shinola
You don't know love from Shinola
Oh, but I gave you love and affection,
But you never gave one iota
It was an early detection that you don't know love from Shinola
You don't know love from Shinola
You don't know what true love's about
'Cause you'll find your world growin' colder
When you're alone and without
So go on, lover boy, have a big time,
Drink up on your bourbon and cola
When you sober up you'll be bleep out of luck
'Cause you don't know love from Shinola
I'm in it for love but you're just playing stud,
'Cause you don't know love from Shinola
You don't know love, you don't know love
You don't know love,
'Cause you don't know love from Shinola
You don't know love, you don't know love
You don't, you don't, you don't know love
