| Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh ohh
|
| I dont understand your thinking
|
| I thought we were happy, guess I was mistaken
|
| Gave you all my love and my attention
|
| Say you dont want me Cuz something is missing
|
| Gave you all you wanted and you know its true
|
| All that I was doin meant nothing to you
|
| And if I told you why, wed probably be cool
|
| But I was good to you, so good
|
| But you want a guy thats real nice
|
| Thatll spend all his dough and his time
|
| But then you change your mind and want a thug guy
|
| Who wont act right
|
| It doesnt pay to be the good guy
|
| You callin me late nights
|
| Tellin me how he wont act right
|
| Stay with him but he makes you cry
|
| Tell me why
|
| It doesnt pay to be the good guy
|
| cause every time Ill be right
|
| I try to be the good guy
|
| You take me for granted, throw me to the side
|
| Rather have a man thatll tell you lies
|
| Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
|
| Why should I be the good guy
|
| And get left for the man that dont treat you right
|
| Theres nothing good in being good guys
|
| Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
|
| I dont understand your reason
|
| Sayin you love me, then sayin your leavin
|
| The situation here has really changed me Dont wanna fall in love cuz you play me (oh)
|
| You gotta be kiddin me (no)
|
| You tryin to get rid of me
|
