You act like you wanna listen when I'm talkin' to you
|
You think you oughta do baby, anything you wanna do
|
You must be crazy baby
|
You just gotta be, outta your mind
|
As long as I'm payin' the bills
|
I'm payin' the cost to be the boss
|
|
I'll drink if I wanna, and play a little poker too
|
I don't want to hear nothin' from ya
|
As long as I'm takin' care of you
|
As long as I'm workin' baby, payin' all the bills
|
I don't want no mouth from you 'bout the way I'm supposed to live
|
|
You must be crazy baby
|
You just gotta be, outta your mind
|
As long as I'm footin' the bill
|
I'm payin' the cost to be the boss
|
|
Now that you got me huh, you act like you're ashamed
|
You don't act like my man - you're just usin' my name
|
I'm gonna have all the money baby
|
I don't want no back talk
|
You don't like how I'm doin'
|
You can pick up your things and walk
|
|
You must be crazy baby
|
You just gotta be, outta your mind
|
As long as I'm payin' the bills
|
I'm payin' the cost to be the boss
