I'm so mixed up
I don't know where to turn
I've been loved by two woman
One is my wife, the other one is my woman, listen to me
And just when you thought of leaving either one of them
Would really blow their mind
Oh listen, my wife she's silky black
And she's a pretty thing
And my woman is such a lovely brown, oh
Y'all, I'm stuck, stuck in the middle
Stuck, stuck in the middle
I don't know where to turn, oh listen to me
My wife, she said she's mine, oh yes, she did
She said she's mine, mine until death do us apart
Listen what my woman said, my woman said
She's mine also because I live everyday within your heart, oh
Ya'll, I'm stuck, stuck in the middle
Stuck, stuck in the middle
Stuck, stuck in the middle
Stuck, stuck in the middle
If I leave my wife for my woman, oh I know
I know, I know my wife won't understand that, no she won't
And if I leave my woman for my wife, oh, I know
I know, I know my woman won't understand me no more
Y'all, I'm stuck, stuck in the middle
Stuck, stuck in the middle
You know I was talking to my wife the other day
And she said, "Marvin, do you remember
The vow you made when we got married", and I said, "Yes"
"Well, do you remember the minister asking you these words"
'Do you take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife?'
Oh, I never will forget to love, to honor, to cherish
Till death do you apart, she said, "Marvin you said, yes"
She said, "Please don't leave me Marvin"
But I've moved on and began to talk to my woman
I never will forget this
She said, "Marvin when you were doing bad
When all your friends turned against you"
She said, I stuck by you Marvin
It was me, please don't leave me"
I just stood there with tears in my eyes
I never will forget it, you know what I said
Y'all, I'm stuck, stuck in the middle
Stuck, stuck in the middle
Stuck, stuck, stuck, stuck in the middle
