THE INTRUDERS-friends no more

As the first group to score hits with the songwriting/production team of Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff, the Intruders played a major role in the rise of Philadelphia soul, but are sometimes lost in the shuffle amid better-known acts like the O’Jays or Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes. The Intruders were originally formed as a doo wop group in 1960, and sang around Philadelphia for several years. Lead singer Sam “Little Sonny” Brown, Eugene “Bird” Daughtry, Phil Terry, and Robert “Big Sonny” Edwards signed with Gamble and Huff’s fledgling Gamble label in 1966. They scored a Top 20 R&B hit that year with “(We’ll Be) United,” and followed it up a year later with “Together,” as well as their first album, The Intruders Are Together. 1968, though, was the Intruders‘ breakthrough year: “Cowboys to Girls,” a template for what would become Philly soul’s trademark sound, topped the R&B charts and climbed to number six on the pop side, giving the group their biggest hit. The follow-up, “(Love Is Like A) Baseball Game,” was their only other Top 40 pop hit, and the accompanying LP, Cowboys to Girls, wound up their most popular.

When i look back! I still cannot believe i hung in there that long... i deserved so much better than what you offered me

[lisaingram]

It sorta left me speechless for a day or so

[lisaingram]

You can't imagine what that felt like for me.. it was nothing like anything I had ever felt in my life

[lisaingram]

You ought to show him some gratitude for what and how he has allowed God to use him in my life.

[lisaingram]

This is why i didnt mind begging Marvin to come back to me after he left

[lisaingram]

That was the deal breaker for me after I witnessed you begging another woman to take you back

[lisaingram]

You know the story about how I met Marvin. I had no idea that he was your friend. I don't even think Marvin knew who I was...

[lisaingram]

Please rethink how you feel about Bishop Marvin, because he was and is my angel

[lisaingram]

I want you to know that it caught me off guard, it was, again below the belt, and I'm sure my enemiesgot a kick out of it

[lisaingram]

You ran me into the arms of another man, if it had not been him, someday it would have been some other man. It is what it is!JUST ADMIT IT! YOU WERE JUST NOT READY FOR ME...

[lisaingram]

I gave you more than many years to get it right/ clean up your act etc and you did neithe

[lisaingram]

I believe that God himself got tired of me getting tired/frustrated in the "relationship" if we can reallycall it that

[lisaingram]

Thank you in advance for your cooperation

[lisaingram]

I also witnessed you begging the woman to take you back! You must have known how that made me feel

[lisaingram]

Somewhere, in all of everything I changed

[lisaingram]

That man you so easily accuse is the same man who picked me up after you knocked me down..

[lisaingram]

Think about it this way, , we were never intimate with eachother anyway. I don't ever think that we ever said more than 6 words to each other the entire time we were supposedly together
