I'm tellin' you, you'd better change your ways I am tired of being lonely night and day While around the town you chase There'll be someone in your place If you don't stop you're cheatin' I'm tellin' you
I'm gettin' wise, so honey take this tip from me I am not the foolish soul I used to be If you think you'll treat me wrong You'll come home and I'll be gone If you don't straighten out I'm tellin' you
The road is long that never takes a turn And, hard is hard, that has no chance to yearn I've loved you much to much Oh you [?] such and such Now you'd better straighten out I'm tellin' you Now you'd better straighten out I'm tellin' you.
