GREAT SONG from the great album 'The Missing Years'(1992) by John Prine
(written by John Prine and John Mellencamp)
i was a bit surprised that this song wasn't on YouTube already, so i'm hoping to fill some gap here. John Prine is surely big enough to have Bruce Springsteen coming over for a backingvocal :)

LYRICS:
I seen my old lady's boy friend
He don't look nothing like me
'Cept for a bit of confusion
Same kind she laid on me
You don't know what you're getting into
She's gonna tear you apart
You're going places i've been to
Take a look at my heart
Take a look at my heart
You're probably sending her flowers
And talking to her on the phone
You're gonna get it together
And find yourself all alone
Do you think you can be her lover
And not become her fool
Do you think that you are
The exception to the rule
You're gonna hate all her girlfriends
And everything that they say
You ask me how do i know this
They come around every day
