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?
