Can't treat me that way - Kate Earl

You’re not the guy I met
and if you are,
only get one chance to prove it
baby make it count

Maybe she let you do that
maybe some other fool had
too many prob­lems
to respect herself

You’ve got a woman who knows her worth
and ain’t pre­pared to com­pro­mise it
you bet­ter lis­ten you bet­ter make it bet­ter
but don’t make me say...

You’ve got a woman who knows her worth
and ain’t pre­pared to com­pro­mise it
you bet­ter lis­ten you bet­ter make it bet­ter
but don’t make me say
you can’t treat me that way

I hope it’s my mis­take
sim­ple mis­un­der­stand­ing
triv­ial bull­shit we blew into space
a com­mon lovers rift
uncom­mon words thrown like fists
cause if you meant it
baby it’s too late

You’ve got a woman who knows her worth
and ain’t pre­pared to com­pro­mise it
you bet­ter lis­ten you bet­ter make it bet­ter
but don’t make me say...

You’ve got a woman who knows her worth
and ain’t pre­pared to com­pro­mise it
you bet­ter lis­ten you bet­ter make it bet­ter
but don’t make me say
you can’t treat me that way

you bet­ter make it bet­ter
you bet­ter make it feel right
you bet­ter make it feel the way it ought to feel
you bet­ter make it bet­ter
you bet­ter make it feel good
you bet­ter do it cause you know that you should

You’ve got a woman who knows her worth
and ain’t pre­pared to com­pro­mise it
you bet­ter lis­ten you bet­ter make it bet­ter
but don’t make me say...

You’ve got a woman who knows her worth
and ain’t pre­pared to com­pro­mise it
you bet­ter lis­ten you bet­ter make it bet­ter
but don’t make me say
you can’t treat me that way...
