Girlfriend

My girlfriend don't treat me right
She's got too many men in her life
Once I woke up with her
To the knocking of a jealous
Ex-boyfriend at the door
He wants to kick my ass
And make a fool out of me
And the only support I get
Is she thinks it's funny
She breaks down and laughs
Explaining that she's confused
I really love that little girl but she gives me the blues

My girlfriend knows how to treat me right
We go drinking and dancing every other night
Hangin'out with her makes me feel like royalty

When she gets drunk and she's all alone
I know she takes other guys home
R-E-S-P-E-C-T what does that mean to you
I really love that little girl but it ain't no use

It just keeps getting worse
I can't break that curse
I've tried it all for years
But nothing works
It just keeps getting worse

My girlfriend says I'm the one to blame
That it's all my fault that I should feel ashamed
If I can't get enough and I stick around
I must have no self-respect
To let her put me down
I really love that little girl
Now what am I going to do
