Don’t Count Your Chickens (Before They Hatch) |
| Don’t count your chickens before they hatch |
| No, no, no, you better treat me like a lady |
| You ain’t got my lovin' yet |
| Don’t count your chickens before they hatch |
| No, no, no, you better treat me with respect |
| Or my love you’ll never get |
| Hey, Mr. Big Shot, what you putting down |
| Lately when I need you, you’re nowhere to be found |
| (What you putting down) |
| I heard it through the grapevine, |
| You’ve been cheatin' love |
| 'Cause what you see you ain’t got |
| Until you’ll respect my love |
| I ain’t no pushover |
| I got a bird in the bushes, too |
| Don’t be too over-confident |
| That bird may not be you |
| Don’t count your chickens before they hatch |
| No, no, no, you better treat me like a lady |
| You ain’t got my lovin' yet |
| Don’t count your chickens before they hatch |
| No, no, no, you better treat me with respect |
| Or my love you’ll never get |
| You’re gonna blow a good thing |
| You think I’m under your thumb |
| One day you’ll snap your finger, and I will fail to come |
| (You weren’t the only one) |
| You break to your men friends to make yourself look tall |
| When I leave, they’ll laugh at you |
| And on your knees you crawl |
| I ain’t no pushover |
| I got a bird in the bushes, too |
| Don’t be too over-confident |
| That bird may not be you |
| Don’t count your chickens before they hatch |
| No, no, no, you better treat me with respect |
| Or my love you’ll never get |
| Oh! |
| Oh, oh, oh! |
| You better treat me like a lady |
| You better treat me like a lady |
| Don’t count your chickens before they hatch |
| No, no, no, you better treat me like a lady |
| You ain’t got my lovin' yet |
| Don’t count your chickens before they hatch |
| No, no, no, you better treat me with respect |
| Or my love you’ll never get |
