Synopsis
Performed as a duet, the man admits to having an affair and being a "two-timing man," acknowledging he has let his lover, the duet partner, down, as she is a "one-man woman." In the end, he promises to be a "one-woman man" in the future. His lover ultimately agrees to take him back because she would rather forgive his indiscretions than live without him.
