INTRO
I wonder how come, you do me like you do
Lord, if I were to help you, it's a good deed you do
I'm tired of your evil, low-down and dirty ways
Oh, I'm tired of your evil, low-down and dirty ways
I don't want me 'round you, I sure don't want to stay
I been a good boy, you tryin' to treat me mean
I been a good boy, you tryin' to treat me mean
Then you treat me like a, poor boy you never seen
Oh good looks gon' help you, but it's the way you do
Oh good looks gonna help you, but it's the way you do
No decent behavior, the hearse will take you, too
Now you're arguin' and you're quarrelin', each day and every night
Oh, you're arguin' and you're quarrelin', each day and every night
End your arguin' and your quarrelin', then I will treat you right
