How Come You Treat Me So Bad

STEVEN VAN ZANDT

I wonder where's my baby tonight
She ain't never around when I want her
Hey Southside, have you seen my baby?
No man, I ain't seen her
Well I been hearing some talk
Are you sure you haven't seen my baby?
Oh no.
Here, here she goes now
Well step out the way
I got to do some talking

Listen here baby to what I say
I break my back working hard all day
And just when I need a little sympathy
You ain't home

I know now baby that I don't ask much
Just a little respect and a loving touch
If I support two people the why am I living alone

Then I wonder
How come you treat me so bad
Your the most loving woman I ever had
How come you treat me so bad
Girl I got to know

I got to find out what's going on
All the women stop and they give me the eye
But the woman I love don't even wonder why
I ain't good looking, but I know spending my money
Another man might get her off town
But if your the one that's like messing around
Well I ain't laughing
But something sure seems funny
Don't it

Hey Southside,
There's something familiar about that shirt
Well eh,
I like to talk to you but I got to play a little something here.

I ask for cooking and you give me food
I ask for, and you give me,
I am asking for time and you tell me I am already to late
What you mean?
Someday, girl, you might change you mind
You realize what you left behind
I got news for you baby
I just might not wait, no more

How come you treat me so bad
Your the most loving woman I ever had
How come you treat me so bad
I am tired of being lonely and I feel so sad
How come you treat me so bad
Your the most loving woman I ever had
How come you treat me so bad
Girl, I got to know

That woman makes me so tired
How long can this go on
She's just like her mother
Yeah I know what you mean
What you mean, you know what I mean?
Well don't get excited
I am talking about my baby
Who your talking about?
I was just
Hey where did you get that shirt?
This is my shirt
Did my baby give you my shirt?
Wait a minute
I paid 12 dollars for that shirt
This is my shirt
