Once I had a sweet love
|
Always followed me around
|
The way I treated my little lamb was like
|
The Marquis D. Sade and Her new clown
|
|
I guess I hurt him
|
I guess I hung up
|
I guess I should have called him back
|
I guess I didn't care
|
Maybe I left him there
|
Maybe a woman just acts like that
|
|
What's a matter?
|
Hey baby, baby
|
What's a matter?
|
Don't you want me?
|
What's a matter?
|
Now Baby, baby
|
What's a matter?
|
|
Is this The Real End?
|
Well, I had some dough,
|
I had a big car,
|
I turned around and all the money was spent
|
I don't know wherever it goes but
|
That's probably where my baby went
|
|
So you got a New boy
|
He's so fine
|
He wants to be with you
|
All the time
|
Don't tell him he's the only one
|
Or your New boy becomes a Hard to find
|
|
What's a matter?
|
Hey baby, baby
|
What's a matter?
|
Don't you want me?
|
What's a matter?
|
Now Baby, baby
|
What's a matter?
|
|
Is this The Real End?
|
|
Can I tell you about it?
|
|
Once you find yourself
|
A Better man
|
Treat him special all of the time
|
Make him some catfish
|
Fry it up in bed
|
Don't leave him hangin' on the telephone line
|
|
But keep him guessing
|
Don't tell him where you are
|
Keep your old linen to yourself
|
Keep your bank account
|
And what you don't worry about,
|
If you can give,
|
Well, it i`ust might work out
|
|
What's a matter?
|
Hey baby, baby
|
What's a matter?
|
You look so funny
|
What's a matter?
|
Now Baby, baby
|
What's a matter?
|
|
Is this the real
|
Real End?
|
