Lyrics
Oh, no matter what you say, baby
No matter what you do
The way you treat me, baby
You know it's comin' back home to you
And your cryin' won't help you, baby
Oh, cryin' won't help you now
Cryin' won't help you, baby
Because you've been so mean to me
Oh, you must remember baby
No mind, no matter where you go
Watch those seeds just scatter
'Cause you gotta reap just what you sow
And your cryin' won't help you, baby
Oh, your cryin' won't help you now
Hey, cryin' won't help you, baby
Because you been so mean to me, yes you have
Ow!
No
Oh, before I leave you, woman
Just wanna shake your hand
I'm goin' back to my woman
Gonna, let you get you another man
And your cryin' won't help you, baby
Hey, cryin' won't help you now
Yes, your cryin' won't help you woman
Because you've been so mean to me
You've been mean, you've been mean
You've been mistreatin' me, you've been mean now
You know you've been mean to me, baby
You know you've been mean
I'm gonna let you go back, to your used-to-be
Can I say it again?
Mean, you've been mean
You've been mistreatin' me woman
You just won't treat me right
Oh, you've been mean
Mean to me, baby
You've been mean
You know you've been so mean to me, woman
You ought to do a little better, baby
You ought to straighten up and fly right, mm-mm
You ought to do a little better, baby
You ought to straighten up and fly right
Yes, you just won't, you just won't
You know you won't, baby
You just won't treat me right, hey
Hey!
Oh, you can't
Haha!
One more time
