Curtis Mayfield — You Better Stop

You better stop Think before you do this to me Just for a second Reflect, oh don't put that dagger through me Although we live like man and wife We both knew there were no tithes I shared what I have, gave it free You've got a new home, drive a car You did't do bad for the times that he had But that wasn't enough Now you're playing him rough You still want to be in the limelight Demanding your half of my gold For this life that you've grown accustomed to You'd be so cold to sell your soul You better stop Think before you do this to me Just for a second Reflect, oh don't put that dagger through me You did't do a thing but you Didn't even stay to rise I payed for my ride while I've ridden The saddle has not been abused I don't think its right If I have to I'll fight To keep from being used Why must you parade our whole history To a world that's too jaded to care Believe in their play, don't put stones in my way Is there no (?) self respect Stop Aww baby stop Oh stop Oh now baby stop You better stop Think Before you do this to me Just for a second reflect Reflect on it baby Don't put that damage on me Don't put that damage on me Ooh stop Think about it You better stop
