Why you treat me so bad?
Why you treat me so bad?
Why you treat me so bad? (So bad)
Why you treat me so bad?
Why you treat me so bad, baby?
Oh, girl, I loved you, but you turned and you walked away
I would love you more tomorrow
Yeah, I know I do today
You told me that you'd never hurt me
Girl, you just tore my life apart
Tell me, baby, why'd you do it?
Won't you bring me back my heart?
I tried to understand it, baby
I searched my heart, inside my mind
I searched the depths of my whole soul, baby
There was nothing there to find
You told me that you'd never leave me
Girl, you just went and told a lie
Tell me, baby, why'd you do it?
Why'd you make a-me want to cry?
Why you treat me so bad?
I don't know why, baby
Why you treat me so bad?
Why you do me the way you do?
Why you treat me so bad?
I don't know why, baby
Why you treat me so bad?
Why you treat me so bad, baby?
Boy, just let me tell you how I really and truly feel
I know that I have doubts and issues
But now I'm gonna tell you the deal
You tell me that I always hurt you
I don't know what you're talkin' 'bout
I tried to love you, tried to hold you
But you always seemed to doubt
You've told me that you didn't trust me
And you didn't want me around
Show somebody else your interest
Now you walk around with a frown
Sorry that you say I hurt you
But you know you hurt me, too
I'm begging you, baby
I need you back
Because I'm still in love with you
Why you treat me so bad?
I don't know why, baby
Why you treat me so bad?
Why you do me the way you do?
Why you treat me so bad?
I don't know why, baby
Why you treat me so bad?
Why you treat me so bad, baby?
I sit here all alone, just thinkin' how our love could be
But every time I call you up
You won't talk on the phone with me
I just don't know if I can take it
Girl, you've make me cop a plea
You've got me begging for your lovin'
Can't you see it's killing me?
I just don't understand you, baby
After all I've done for you
I know we've both gone through some changes
And now you say your love is true
Boy, you know how much I loved you
Now I guess my heart has changed
Don't beg me, baby
Can't take you back
I've found myself another man
Why you treat me so bad?
I don't know why, baby
Why you treat me so bad?
Why you do me the way you do?
Why you treat me so bad?
I don't know why, baby
Why you treat me so bad?
Why you treat me so bad, baby?
Oh, girl
I don't know
Why you treat me so bad?
Do what's right, yeah
I'm truly sad as I can, yeah
Oh, love me, baby, yeah, oh
Why you treat me so bad?
I don't know
Why you treat me so bad?
So bad
Why you treat me so bad?
Why you treat me so bad?
Why you treat me so bad?
