Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey, baby, you ain't treatin' me right
You go off everyday and you don't come home till night
That ain't the way to do it, that ain't the way to do it
That ain't the way to do it, that ain't the way to get along
[Verse 2]
Well, I'm pickin' you up and takin' you to my house
Now you're up and you're treatin' me like a mouse
That ain't the way to do it, that ain't the way to do it
That ain't the way to do it, that ain't the way to get along
What'd ya say, Johnny?
[Verse 3]
Well, I've taken you to my house and did everything I could
You told everybody in the neighborhood
That ain't the way to do it, that ain't the way to do it
That ain't the way to do it, that ain't the way to get along
Well, alright
Ow!
[Verse 4]
Well, if you got a little woman and she won't treat you right
Beat her three times a day and whoop her a little at night
That is the way to do it, yeah, that is the way to do it
That is the way to do it, that's the way to get along
