Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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, and you wanna be friends
I'm losing my patience, you're nearing the end
[Verse 2]
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 martyr, with no one, no say
Oh, my, my baby, before it's too late
[Verse 3]
Treat me right
Treat me right
Open your eyes, maybe you'll see the light
[Verse 4]
Do you think I'm a fool?
Well, you better think twice
I've had enough, baby
It's time you realized
That you can't have it both ways
It's no way to live
You've done all the taking
It's your turn to give
[Verse 5]
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 martyr, with no one, no say
Oh, my, my baby, before it's too late
[Verse 6]
Treat me right
Treat me right
Open your eyes, maybe you'll see the light
Oh, treat me right
[Verse 7]
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, and you wanna be friends
I'm losing my patience, you're nearing the end
[Verse 8]
Treat me right
Treat me right
Open your eyes, maybe you'll see the light
Oh, treat me right
[Verse 9]
Treat me right
Treat me right
Treat me right
Treat me right
Treat me right
Treat me right
Treat me right
Treat me right
Treat me right
Treat me right
