Treat Them Like They Want To Be Treated Lyrics

[Intro: Jodeci]
Treat 'em like they wanna be treated
You should treat 'em right
Treat 'em like they wanna be treated
You should treat 'em right
Treat 'em like they wanna be treated
You should treat 'em right
Treat 'em like they wanna be treated
You should treat 'em right

[Intro: K-Ci]
What you need to do
You should treat 'em right
Oh

[Chorus: Jodeci]
Treat 'em like they wanna be treated
You should treat 'em right
Treat 'em like they wanna be treated
You should treat 'em right

[Verse 1: Father MC]
Why girls play with my feelings?
I don't know, so that's why I ask
Maybe it's true that I set myself up
But then again, it's the question I asked
I want someone for me who is straight
A kind of cutie, yes, yep, a smart mate
I've been around searching for the right one
But it seems like a waste of my time
Every time that I meet the right one
It seems as if she plays with my mind
So it makes me on the defense side
Because my offense is sort of slow
It doesn't pay to tell someone "I love you"
Because in my vocab "I love you" is a no-no
I think I give in. My feelings, they show
I think I'd better not look back
I've been down a little too long
And now it's time that I get on track
So I must—

[Chorus: Jodeci & K-Ci]
Treat 'em like they wanna be treated
(What you need to do)
Treat 'em like they wanna be treated
(You should treat 'em right)
You should treat 'em right

[Verse 2: Father MC & JoJo]
I like to mingle when I do mingle
I love to mingle when I do flirt
I get off hand and tell the stories
About my past and that's when it hurts
But I need to find for me a lonesome lady type
Who wants me for self
A woman who wants me because of Father
Not for the fame or for my wealth
So I can (Show her how I feel)
Yeah, ladies I'm not that picky
But being picky is just for self
I must protect what I respect
And that is me and not someone else
I've been mistreated up on the downhill
Back in the days I used to be strong
I used to flirt, hurt, kind of jerk
Get the cash, the sex then I'm gone
But payback is a mother
And now I don't know who to trust
So I just...

[Chorus: Jodeci & K-Ci]
Treat 'em like they wanna be treated
(That's all you need to do)
You should treat 'em right

[Post-Chorus: Father MC & K-Ci]
Yeah (Ooh yeah)
You know, women, yeah, they tell me I'm lovely and cuddly
(Treat 'em like they wanna be treated)
But I just don't understand why they want to play with my feelings
(Treat 'em like they wanna be treated)
But it won't happen again
Nah, never
(No no no no no, no no no no no, no no no no)

[Verse 3: Father MC]
So, listen ladies I'll treat you
How you treat me back in return
I'm not rude, no, I'm not stuck up
But my feelings are my main concern
So don't think that I'd give in
Because now I know how to show
My feelings when I get involved
I'll take it slow before I say "Oh, no"
I'll treat you like you treat me
I'll be straight loyal and all
So don't take advantage of Father
Because I'll step, walk but not crawl
So, give me what you can give me
Love, attention, a lot of respect
I don't ask for a whole lot
But I'm gone if you wanna step
That's why I like to take it slow
Not rush because I want more
The next time that I fall in love
Hm, you best I'll be sure
(Hey, I'm gonna treat you—)

[Chorus: Jodeci, K-Ci, Father MC]
Treat 'em like they wanna be treated
(So ladies) (Like they wanna be treated)
You should treat 'em right
(Now y'all know how I'm livin')
(Every day, every night, every hour)
(And y'all know what I'm about)
Treat 'em like they wanna be treated
(And that's the end
So if you feel you can freak)
You should treat 'em right
(Come and give it a shot)
Treat 'em like they wanna be treated
(Said it's about you, all about you)
You should treat 'em right
(Honey, I wanna treat you like you oughta be treated)
Treat 'em like they wanna be treated
(I love you, baby, ha)
You should treat 'em right
(I need you, baby; I gotta have you)

[Outro: K-Ci & JoJo]
I need you, baby; I gotta have you
Yes, I do, baby
Every hour of the day, every day of the week, baby
Ah yeah, ah yeah
Baby, yeah; baby, yeah; baby, yeah
Baby, yeah (Baby, yeah); baby, yeah (Baby, yeah); baby, yeah (Baby, yeah)
Baby, yeah (Oh), oh oh
I'm gonna treat you (I'm gonna treat you)
I'm gonna treat you (I'm gonna love you)
I wanna love you (I wanna love you)
Every day, every hour
Oh baby, ba-b-b-baby, b-b-baby (Baby)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh yeah (Treat 'em like)
Treat 'em like, treat 'em like
