Lyrics

If you should lose me, (oh yeah)you'll lose a good thing

If you let go of me, you'll regret losing someone valuable

If you should lose me,(oh yeah) you'll lose a good thing

Reiteration of the warning that losing the speaker is a loss of something good


You know I love you,do anything for you

Expressing love and willingness to do anything for the partner

Just don't mistreat me, and I'll be good to you

Asking not to be mistreated in return for being good to the partner


Cause if you should lose me,you'll lose a good thing

Emphasizing the consequence of losing the speaker


I'm givin' you one more chance, for you to do right

Offering one more opportunity for the partner to make amends

If you'll only straighten up, you'd have a good life.

Suggesting that a good life is possible if the partner corrects their behavior


But if you should lose me, you'll lose a good thing

Reiterating the significant loss if the partner doesn't change


This is my last time not asking anymore, if you don't do right,

Declaring it's the last chance and warning of leaving if the partner doesn't improve

I'm gonna march outta that door,

Stating the intention to leave if the partner continues to mistreat

And if you don't believe me, just try it daddy

Challenging the partner to test the speaker's resolve

And you'll lose a good thing.

Reiterating the consequence of losing something valuable


Just try daddy, and you'll lose a good thing

Encouraging the partner to test the consequence


Just try daddy, and you'll lose a good thing

Repetition of the challenge to experience the loss


Just try it daddy, and you'll lose a good thing

Emphasizing the invitation to test the outcome of losing the speaker


Just try it daddy, and you'll lose a good thing

Repeating the warning that losing the speaker is a significant loss
