Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Girl, make a list
Go out and find yourself a new bad thing
Girl, you need a trip
'Cause he's not worth the misery and pain
[Verse 2]
Just remember how he would tell you lies
And then pretend that everything is so sweet
Why should you sacrifice if you're not satisfied?
He's just a canine running 'round in heat
[Verse 3]
Girlfriend
How could you let him treat you so bad? Oh
Girlfriend
You know you were the best he ever had, oh, oh, oh, oh
[Verse 4]
Girlfriend
How could you let him treat you so bad? Oh
Girlfriend
You know you were the best he ever had, oh, oh, oh, oh
[Verse 5]
Girl, you must resist
Don't let him squirm his way into your heart
No, girl, I must insist
You've got to stop the fool before he starts
[Verse 6]
Just remember how he was so untrue
With all the tacky things he did to you
No need to signify 'cause he's not worth your time
You need to fine someone that's true to you
[Verse 7]
Girlfriend
How could you let him treat you so bad? Oh
Girlfriend
You know you were the best he ever had, oh, oh, oh, oh
[Verse 8]
Girlfriend
How could you let him treat you so bad? Baby, don't be sad, no
Girlfriend
You know you were the best he ever had, oh, oh, oh, oh
[Verse 9]
To believe or not to believe
That is the question
It just takes a street degree
You've lied your last lie
And I've cried my last cry
I'm out the door, babe
There's other fish in the sea
[Verse 10]
Cute, cute, cute, cute
[Verse 11]
Hey, you, sing
[Verse 12]
To believe or not to believe
That is the question
It just takes a street degree
You've lied your last lie
And I've cried my last cry
I'm out the door, babe
There's other fish in the sea
[Verse 13]
Girlfriend
How could you let him treat you so bad? Oh
Girlfriend
You know you were the best he ever had, oh, oh, oh, oh
[Verse 14]
Girlfriend
How could you let him treat you so bad? Baby, don't be sad, no
Girlfriend
You know you were the best he ever had, oh, oh, oh, oh
[Verse 15]
Don't let him put you down
Girl, he's been messing around
You've been used, abused so, baby, make your move
You've learned your lesson now so turn this hurt around
You ain't no fool 'cause you've got to bust loose
[Verse 16]
Girlfriend
How could you let him treat you so bad? Oh
Girlfriend
