Sitting at home with your woman gone 
Everyday you hear the same song 
She's out late and never makes time for you 
Same place but you're worlds apart 
Same dreams you both once had 
What you live is a life that's so empty 

And when she's back she wants to relax 
She lays [bad word]  no questions asked 
It doesn't bother her what you do 
And when she [bad word] around 
Its all about why is this, why is that 
tell me how long can you pull through 

She can't love you like I can 
She can't make you feel like the man 
That you are its time you took a look at you 
She will never treat you right 
It doesn't make no sense to hold tight 
What you need is this African Girl 
African Girl 
 
She loves you but never has the time 
Yeah she cares but is she ever there 
Its tough love I don't really think so 
You speak its hard for her to listen 
What you need she doesn't understand 
She could never give you what you want 

And when you're out she's wandered again 
You spend the night trying to locate your woman 
Is she really yours 
You say its hard to start again 
Its even worse to keep hanging in 
Baby you deserve much better 

She can't love you like I can 
She can't make you feel like the man 
That you are its time you took a look at you 
She will never treat you right 
It doesn't make no sense to hold tight 
What you need is this African Girl 
African Girl 

Who knows what you long for 
Who knows what you need 
Who knows how to love you 
And be your everything 
I can be your everything

She can't love you like I can 
She can't make you feel like the man 
That you are its time you took a look at you 
She will never treat you right 
It doesn't make no sense to hold tight 
What you need is this African Girl 
African Girl
