Take it by your bruises he's been workin' hard on ya
Feedin' you this bull%#@! why he needs to take it out on ya
I've seen this all before

Slaps you then calls you !@^%
You need to leave him darlin' don't let this go on


Take it by your bleedin' he's been beatin' strong on ya
Tellin' me this bull%#@! you can't live without his arm on ya
I've heard this all before

Can't nobody help no more
You need to leave him darlin' don't let this go on


I know you've known him for so long
But the one that you love is gone
And left is a

Shadow of a man

You need to stop baby think about yourself

Are you happy with the way that he's been treatin' you like hell
You need to stop baby think about your child
Are you happy with the way that he's been givin' her the belt


One day you'll look back and you'll cry
You'll have a new man by your side

He'll treat that precious $$# so well
One day you'll look back at this hell
