treat my baby good

you better treat my baby good

if you know what's good for you

you'd better never make her cry

go on make one mistake

and i'll step in and take

away the ache in her heart

so. play it smart

you better treat my baby good

if you know what's good for you

don't ever let me see her blue

go ahead and put her down

once too often around a friend in town

and you'll see

she's back with me

who am i kiddin'?

she's better off without me now

and i know that's good for you

but

all the same keep this in mind

just make sure everyday

that you treat her the way

she'd like to say that you should

treat my baby good

just make sure everyday

that you treat her the way

she'd like to say that you should

treat my baby good

just make sure everyday

that you treat her the way

she'd like to say that you should
