You want me to leave you want me to stay
You ask me to come back then you turn and walk away
You wanna be lovers then you wanna be friends
I'm losin' my patience you're nearin' the end
One of these days you're gonna reach out and find
The one that you count on has left you behind
Don't wanna be no mother you know I'm no saint
Oh my my baby before it's too late
Treat me right treat me right open your eyes maybe you'll see the light
Do you think I'm a fool well you'd better think twice
I've had enough baby it's time you realize
That you can't have it both ways that's no way to live
You've done all the takin' it's your turn to give
One of these days you're gonna reach out and find
The one that you count on has left you behind
Don't wanna be no mother you know I'm no saint
Oh my my baby before it's too late
Treat me right treat me right
Open your eyes maybe you'll see the light oh treat me right
You want me to leave you want me to stay
You ask me to come back you turn and walk away
You wanna be lovers then you wanna be friends
I'm losin' my patience you're nearin' the end
Treat me right treat me right
Open your eyes maybe you'll see the light oh treat me right
Treat me right treat me right
Treat me right treat me right
