That's the Way It Goes

Henry Cosby, William “Mickey” Stevenson

Some fellas like to leave
Leave a girl laughing
(Leave 'em laughing, ooh)
Some fellas like to leave
Leave a girl crying (Keep 'em crying, ooh)
Well, laugh or cry, either way you go
There's only one thing that she
Wants you to say say you love her every day

That's way it goes (That's the way it goes)
The only way it goes
(The only way it goes now) yes

Some fellas like to keep a
Keep a girl waiting (Keep 'em waiting, ooh)
Some fеllas like to leave 'еm anticipating
(Anticipating, ooh)
Take her love for granted
And that's the worst thing you can do
You got to reassure her that
Your love is for her in everything you do

That's way it goes (That's the way it goes)
The only way I know
(The only way it goes now) yes

It may sound real funny, but I know it's true
Love 'em good like you know you should
And love will come back to you, running, baby
Woo, baby

Some fellas like to leave a
Girl with their money (Cash money, ooh)
Some fellas like to leave a
Girl feeling real funny (Real funny, ooh)
But take it from me
Girls can't be treated that way
You got to love 'em right, both day and night
Through each and every day

That's way it goes (That's the way it goes)
The only way I know
(The only way it goes now) hey, hey

Treat 'em good, treat 'em right
Give 'em love day and night
(That's the way it goes)
That's the way it goes only way I know
(The only way it goes)
Don't you lose her, ooh, treat her good
(That's the way it goes)
All day and night, yeah
