When I'm with my guy and he watches all the pretty girls go by,
And I feel so hurt deep inside I wish that I could die,
Not a word do I say, I just look the other way,
When he treats me rough and he acts as though he doesn't really care,
Well, I never tell him that he is so unfair.
'Cause he loves me and I know it, but he's just afraid to show it,
Oh, when he wants to be alone I just let him be,
'Cause I know that soon enough he will come back to me.
When we have a fight I think that I won't see him any more,
Then before I know it there he is standing at my door.
Well, I let him kiss me there then, 'cause I know he wants me back
again,
That's the way boys are,
Yes, that's the way boys are.
Oh, I love him,
Well, now, that's the way boys are,
I said that's the way boys are,
Hear me, that's the way boys are...
