You Better Stop lyrics

by

Curtis Mayfield


[Chorus]
You better stop
Think before you do this to me
Just for a second, reflect
Oh, don't put that dagger through me

[Verse 1]
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 didn't do bad for the times that we 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

[Chorus]
You better stop
Think before you do this to me
Just for a second, reflect
Oh, don't put that dagger through me

[Verse 2]
You didn't bring in a thing but you
Didn't even stay at a price
I paid for my ride while I've ridden
The saddle has not been abused
I don't think it's 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 price on self-respect
[Outro]
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
