(B. Tarpley - W. Morgan)

The more you try to put me down
The more I want to hang around
And you know that ain't right.

The more you seem to want to stray
The more I love you everyday
And you know that ain't right.

So put yourself in place of me
I'll push you around and then you'll see
That ain't the way it ought to be
But I can't help myself
I've tried I just accept your little white lies
And you know that ain't right.

The less you seem to care for me
The more I want you to comfort me
And you know that ain't right.

And even though, you treat me bad
I like the treatment that I've had
And you know that ain't right.

So just put yourself in place of me
And I'll push you around
And then you'll see
That ain't the way it ought to be.

But I can't help myself I've tried
I just accept your little white lies
And you know that ain't right.

I said you know that ain't right.
I know you know that ain't right...
