[Verse 1]
You go around braggin' that your love is good
See you got two women in the same neighborhood
You got a big car and money in the bank
But you ain't doin' as good as you think
[Chorus]
You can't please every woman in town
I got a good man to put you down!
'Cause you're short stopping!
Short stopping!
Short stopping!
[Verse 2]
You tried to pull the rug right from under my feet
(You tried to pull the rug right from under my feet)
And I'm using you like you're using me
(And I'm using you like you're using me)
You think you're cool tryin' to be so fly
(Peak!)
But I've got my fingers in both of your eyes
(But I've got my fingers in both of your eyes)
[Chorus]
You can't see and do everything
You oughta come on in out of your lane
'Cause you're short stopping!
Short stopping!
Short stopping!
[Verse 3]
The jack of all trades to the maximum (Oh-oh, yeah!)
Everything you do is just half done (Oh-oh, yeah!)
You think your kind is hard to find
(You think your kind is hard to find)
But I just wish you could read my mind
[Chorus]
Can't please every woman in town
I got a good man to put you down!
'Cause you're short stopping!
[Outro]
I say [?] better now
(Short stopping)
You ain't doin' it right
(Short stopping)
Get your game up tight
(Short stopping)
I need your love every night
(Short stopping)
You give me [?]
(Short stopping)
Keep snatchin' it back
(Short stopping)
You think you're cool
(Short stopping)
Tryin' to be super fly
(Short stopping)
But I got my finger
(Short stopping)
In both of your eye
(Short stopping)
You ain't doin' it right
(Short stopping)
Get your game up tight
(Short stopping)
Short Stopping was written by Bettye Crutcher & Bobby Manuel & Sir Mack Rice.
