Talk of beatin' down the door
Tellin' me I was wrong
Woman she gets tired
When a man is away too long
Talk about your good times
You had a couple of your own
People who live in a glass-house
Shouldn't ever throw those stones
Yeah, sweep around your own back door
You got some cleanin' to do
Now don't come pickin' on me no more
This woman is through with you
Maybe I act a little too loose
Maybe I started astray
But I got you to thank oh, baby
For the way yeah I am today
I hear you call me your woman
You see my friends at home
While you're out there cheatin' baby
This woman should have a home
Oh, Lord I didn't know just what to do
So I found another man
To love me better than you
Yeah, sweep around your own back door
You got some cleanin' to do
Now don't come callin' on me no more
This woman is through with you
Maybe I act a little too loose
Maybe I started astray
But I got you to thank oh, baby
For the way I am today
Hey, hey, yeah
You had a handful of gimmicks
And a mouthful much obliged
That's what I get from you baby
You expect me to sympathize
But I got news for you hey
There's gonna be a change in view
So pack up your bag and get on out
To put your business in the street
Yeah, sweep around your own back door
You got some cleanin' to do
Now don't come callin' on me no more
This woman is through with you
Now maybe I act a little too loose
Maybe I started astray
But I got you to thank oh, baby
For the way yeah I am today
Yeah, sweep around your own back door
You got some cleanin' to do
Now don't come pickin' on me no more
Baby I'm through with you
Yeah, sweep around your own back door
And don't come beatin' on me no more
Sweep around your own back door
Don't come pickin' on me no more
Sweep around your own back door
Don't come beatin' on me.
