TREAT HER RIGHT

Original Roy Head And The Traits version



Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
Yeah, my man
Alright
Hey!
Ahhh, you looking good, baby

I wanna tell you a story
Every man oughta know
If you want a little loving
You gotta start real slow
She's gonna love you tonight now
If you just treat her right now

Ah, squeeze her real gentle
Gotta make her feel good
Tell her that you love her
Like you know you should
'Cause if you don't treat her right
She won't love you tonight

If you practice my method
Just as hard as you can
You're gonna get a reputation
As a loving man, now
And you'll be glad every night
That you treated her right

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
Alright!
Yeah, yeah!
Hey!
Every night!
Alright!
Hey!
Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey!
Oh, work it now one time!
Singing too much, baby, alright!
Hey!
Hey!
