SUBSTITUTE - Gregory Isaacs

Suzan told me to leave

Saying she’s a woman who’s cute

All of a sudden she said she found a substitute

But I’m just letting you know that I’ll be around

I’ll be your bridge over troubled waters

So you won’t get drown

Cause Your substitute’s gonna put you down.

I heard you’re smoking cigarettes by the pack

Since you told me to leave and don’t come back

It wasn’t my fault

You were the one who said we’re through

Now you’re drinking liquor

Which you didn’t do

But I’ll be around

So you won’t get drown

Cause your substitute’s gonna put you down…

Whenever time you’re in trouble

Just call my name and I’ll be on the double.

So you won’t get drowned

Cause your substitute’s gonna put you down…

But I’llbe around

Yes I’ll be around.
