He fucked your mother
and she called him lover
He went away and
now she haven't slept in days
She told you that he stolen money
She said, "honey, what you're gonna do?"
Don't ask for help
Everyone else would laugh at you
You will be the only fool
You'd better buy yourself a gun
and learn how to shoot
You'd better always carry a knife
Be ready to fight!
Fight!
Fight...
Fight!
She wants you to be the man
to carry the burden with your own hands
They want you to pay the bills
Make 'em feel that your love is real
You've got to treat 'em right
Tell a lie
but keep 'em satisfied
by your side
You've got to treat women right
You ask if anyone saw him
A man at the bar
saw he drivin' a car
He might not gone too far
Grow up, boy
Drop your toys
and hold that gun like a cowboy
Won't you ride
for your pride?
You don't know what it's all about
You don't know what it's like
to treat women right
You just ain't the kind
Make up your mind and realize
Your mother told a lie to you
That's what they do
when they lose
the love of their lives
So she cries through the night
While you pick a fight that's not yours...
Could you shoot an innocent?
Try to understand
Your mother wanted romance
but he's got tied hands
Tied hands!
Tied hands...
Tied hands!
She wants you to bring him back
Then she could stop wearing black
He's not the king of deceit
as she made you believe
But you were just a kid
Didn't see women bleed
Didn't have your first time
You still don't know what it's like
to treat women right
Treat women right...
