I never thought you'd hurt me,
I guess you live and learn
that when you're playin' with fire,
you're bound to get burned.
Oh, I've been mistreated,
I've been used before.
I get kicked in the face,
still I come back for more.
But I won't cry no more
'cause the tears are all in vain.
We can pick up the pieces, start it all again.
Let's just get back to the way it was before.
Oh, girl, I can't take any more.
Baby, don't treat me bad.
Well, this could be the best thing
that you've ever had.
Baby, don't treat me bad.
Well, you can do anything,
but, baby, don't treat me bad.
Whoa, don't treat me bad.
I gave everything,
but you threw it all away.
I can't take any more
of these games that you play.
I've been through heartache
and I've been through pain
and it's hard to believe
you still treat me this way.
But I won't cry no more
'cause the tears are all in vain.
We can pick up the pieces, start it all again.
Let's just get back to the way it was before.
Oh, girl, I can't take any more.
Baby, don't treat me bad.
Well, this could be the best thing
that you've ever had.
Baby, don't treat me bad.
Well, you can do anything,
but, baby, don't treat me bad.
Whoa, don't treat me bad.
'Cause, girl, I can't take any more.
Oh, yeah.
Now listen to me:
Baby, don't treat me bad.
Well, this could be the best thing
that you've ever had.
Baby, don't treat me bad.
Well, you can do anything,
but, baby...
Now listen to me:
Baby, don't treat me bad.
Well, this could be the best thing
that you've ever had.
Baby, don't treat me bad.
Well, you can do anything,
but, baby, don't treat me bad.
Don't treat me bad.
Oh, yeah, don't treat me bad.
No, no, no, no, no, no, don't treat me bad.
Don't treat me bad.
