You're Messing Up a Good Thing Songtext
von Bobby Womack

I keep on tryin′ to make you believe it
Oh, girl lemme tell ya something
And I hope you understand
I wouldn't do anything to hurt ya′
'Cause I'm not that kind of man
Always accusing me, of saying I′m doing ya′ wrong
But if you don't believe I′m workin'
Why you′re staying at home?

Tryin' my best to give you the thing you never had
But you twist around everything I say
Just to make me feel bad


Hey baby!
Hey baby!
Hey baby! (Oh baby, yeah)
Tell me, how can we keep on fighting this way?
I can′t understand It

Oh girl I really love ya
And it hurts to see you cry
It's just as hard for me to come home
As it is to say goodbye
Darling you're mine, I′m not doin′ what ya say I do
Girl I tell you everywhere I go, you could check it if you wanted to

Why do complain so much? I'm sacrificing too
Is it because you don′t love me, as much I love you?

I keep on callin' ya baby
I keep on hopin′, yeah baby (oh baby)
Tell me how can we go on fighting this way?

Oh baby, I just can't understand it
Can′t understand ya, baby
Oh yeah, baby!
