So if you feel mistreated
Because your baby aint treatin you right
If you feel mistreated
Well then youd better take my advice
Youd better leave that (WO)MAN! (And leave him quick) ba ba da...
Youd better leave that (WO)MAN! (And leave him quick) ba ba da...
Youd better leave that (wo)man and leave him quick
Before he gets you on a stick because we got
We got, we got, we got
We got the separation blues ba ba da...
