You can please me
You can sweet talk and lead me on
But believe me
Won't be long till I'm catching on
Now you left me here with nothing
And you put my love on hold
Well there must be something behind those eyes
Because I believe every lie you told

That ain't no way to treat a lady
That ain't no way to treat a woman in love
That ain't no way to treat a lady
I could of sworn that you'd had enough

So you leave me
Well I'm lonely and in despair
It intrigues me
How you don't really seem to care.
Well I ain't here for nothing
And my love doesn't come that cheap
I will hold you to all your promises
If I could find one you meant to keep

That ain't ain't no way to treat a lady
That ain't no way to treat a woman in love
That ain't ain't no way to treat a lady
That ain't no way, no way to treat a woman in love

You can tease me
You can sweet talk and lead me on
But believe me
Won't be long till I'm catching on
For I ain't here for nothing
And my love doesn't come that cheap
And I will hold you to all your promises
If I could find one you meant to keep
