Change Your Ways

Boy - I know you’re crazy
Yeah crazy for me 
You show me every - every day
But there’s somethin’ that 
You need to see, Yeah
That’s standin’ right here in our way

Boy if you want to be with me
Wake up – Yeah wake up and see

I ain’t your MAMA - And I don't like DRAMA
But I’m workin’ hard to keep us in play
Please hear my words – Cause I need a Man
To meet me half way – So change your ways
Yeah Baby, Change your ways 

You love your mom 
She loves you too
But as her only boy she spoiled you
We love each other 
But that’s a different thing
A real man knows love’s a two-way street
                                   
Don’t use those eyes to chastise
I won’t be hypnotized

I ain’t your MAMA - And I don't like DRAMA
But I’m workin’ hard to keep us in play
Please hear my words – Cause I need a Man
To meet me half way – So change your ways
Yeah Baby, Change your ways 

Don’t need it in writin’
 I’ll know if you’re lyin’
I’ll see it in your eyes
Won’t be able to disguise
So baby, please-please - let The Man Arrive

Cause, I ain’t your MAMA - And I don't like DRAMA
But I’m workin’ hard to keep us in play
Please hear my words – Cause I need a man
To meet me half way – So change your ways
Yeah Baby, Change your ways 
Yeah, Change your ways
