Well, you're standing on the corner flagging all the girls you see
Now do like EC and let those ladies be
You know that's wrong, man, you know that's wrong

Boy, you better get control - that's how you got killed before

That girl you just met who got a big guy for a pal

Who'll put knots on your head for messing with his gal
So take it steady, man, let those women go
Well, I'm just trying to tell you - that's how you got killed before


Now, you wouldn't listen, Ephrom, you got two black eyes
That's what you get, Daddy, for messing with men's wives

So take it steady, whoa, let those women go
Well, I'm just trying to tell you - that's how you got killed before
