Two people together

And felt a little bit a pleasure

A seed was sewn and before it was grown

Somebody came and cut it down



I'll be good to you, baby

I'll treat you right 

And I'll give you that name that you never had

Cause somebody came and cut you down



You are becoming an endangered species

They think more of the fishes in the sea

And you already out number the great Holocost

And nobody's even weeping you loss

Cause you never saw the light of day (you never saw the light of day)

And you never heard a robin sing ( you never heard a robin sing)

And you never took a ride on a merry-go-round

Cause somebody came and cut you down



But I'll be good to you, baby

I'll treat you right 

And I'll give you that love that you never had

Cause somebody came and cut you down



Good to you 

Good to you 

Good to you

I'll be good to you 

Good to you 

Good to you

I'll be good to you 

Good to you 

Good to you

I'll be good to you 

Good to you 



[scatting]



I never gave them the right to throw your body into the sea

(I didn't do it, no)

I never gave them the right to tie your little hands and little feet

(I didn't do it, no)



I'll be good to yo, baby

I'll treat you right

And I'll give you that love that you never had

Cause somebody came and cut you down



I'll be good to you, baby, sweet baby

I'll be treat you right, baby, sweet baby

I'll be good to you, baby, sweet baby

I'll be treat you right, baby, sweet baby

I'll be good to you, 

I'll be treat you right, (I'll treat you right)
