Betta think about it
Before you say a word, baby
Betta think about it
Before you lay your hands on me
This love, this lust, this sweet desire to my lips
I owe you one thing
I know, you know
That you don't deserve it, oh

Treat me betta
Before you get the boot, baby
Oh, honey
Tease me, sugar
Before you catch the blues, baby

Betta be about it
You talk of this and that, yeah
Saying, "honey, sugar, baby"
Betta be about it
Before you go around telling everybody and their mama I'm yours
Honеy

Your laugh, your smile
Your sweetest dedication
Do you rеscind it?
I know, you know
You're driving my love, baby
Oh, oh
Treat me better
Before you get the boot, baby
Oh honey
Tease me, sugar
Before you catch the blues, baby

I've been dreaming 'bout it all along
I can't stand it when you're gone so long
Hey hey
Left you so far on the far side fading
Get yourself together and fight the stormy weather
'Cuz life is too short so just show your special melody, baby
Oh

Treat me betta
Before you get the boot
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Tease me, sugar (you better treat me right)

Treat me betta
You better treat me right, hey
Tease me, sugar
Before you catch your blues, oh honey
Oh baby
Hey hey hey
