If You Don’t Know How Sweet It Is
[Chorus]
If you don't know how sweet it is
Get on out of my kitchen
If you can't tell how good it is
Well you won't know what you're missin'
You're good but I'll find better
And they'll be without your bitchin'
If you don't know how sweet it is
Get on out of my kitchen
[Verse 1]
I heard you whine the other day
That dinner wasn’t good enough
The kids were just a little too loud
The steak was just a little tough
The clothes weren’t neatly folded
You had to make the bed
Well I’m sorry for your troubles
Just think on this instead
[Chorus]
If you don't know how sweet it is
Get on out of my kitchen
If you can't tell how good it is
Well you won't know what you're missin'
You're good but I'll find better
And they'll be without your bitchin'
If you don't know how sweet it is
Get on out of my kitchen
[Verse 2]
Maybe I’m the one to blame
Maybe it’s my problem
Maybe it’s cause I let you think
That I was made to walk on
I treated you like a king
Maybe that’s the reason
Soon enough you grew to think
That Christmas was all season
[Chorus]
If you don't know how sweet it is
Get on out of my kitchen
If you can't tell how good it is
Well you won't know what you're missin'
You're good but I'll find better
And they'll be without your bitchin'
If you don't know how sweet it is
Get on out of my kitchen
[Verse 3]
So long ago we said, "I do"
And I've done and done and done
And you've been acting like our life
Is a lottery that you just won
I gave you all I had to give
You took it without question
And now you're stepping out for more
So I've just one suggestion
[Chorus]
If you don't know how sweet it is
Get on out of my kitchen
If you can't tell how good it is
Well you won't know what you're missin'
You're good but I'll find better
And they'll be without your bitchin'
If you don't know how sweet it is
Get the hell on out of my kitchen
