Take a minute girl, now, talk about it
I know you've been thinking about walking out
You been coming around here with your head down
Treat you real bad, no, don't let him now
You never seem to doubt it's your house
You tell me all he'd ever do is scream and shout
Take it from me, he is never gonna change
Don't appreciate what a real woman brings

I don't know why he treats you so rough
All you do is keep it inside
When it's much too much
And I don't know why
That's not enough
Tell him goodbye
'Cause it's not real love

Now, don't take this the wrong way
Listen up, girl, here's what I'm saying
All he's gonna do is break your heart
And you don't want to find out the hard way
Now he's wondering, I think no surprise
His favourite thing to do is make you cry
This is a game only once to play
Girl you look lost, need to find your way

I don't know why he treats you so rough
All you do is keep it inside
When it's much too much
And I don't know why
That's not enough
Tell him goodbye
'Cause it's not real love

Ooh
I know you know better than that
It's a shame he don't
But he should really know
He's losing a good thing
That you're such a beautiful, beautiful woman
That your love's just great
See, honey, I oughtta tell you
He's not a friend
So better take your love away

I don't know why he treats you so rough
He treats you so rough
All you do is keep it inside
Why'd you keep it inside
When it's much too much
And I don't know why
That's not enough
It's not enough
Tell him goodbye
'Cause it's not real love

I don't know why he treats you so rough
So rough
All you do is keep it inside
Keep it inside
When it's much too much
It's much too much
It's much too much baby
And I don't know why
Much too much
Oh, you got it
That's not enough
Tell him goodbye
'Cause it's not real love
