Lyrics
You've got to change your evil ways, baby
You need to alter your immoral behavior, my dear
Before I stop lovin' you
Before my love for you comes to an end
You've got to change, baby
You must change your ways
And every word that I say is true
Every statement I make is sincere
You got me runnin' and hidin' all over town
Your actions have me constantly on the move, trying to avoid you
You got me sneakin' and a-peepin' and runnin' you down
I find myself sneaking around, spying, and pursuing you
This can't go on, Lord knows you got to change, baby
This situation is untenable; it's imperative that you change, my dear
When I come home, baby
Upon returning home, I find a somber atmosphere, and there's no warmth in our relationship
My house is dark and my pots are cold
My home is joyless, and there's no food prepared
You're hangin' round, baby
You're spending time with others, including Jean and Joan and unknown acquaintances
With Jean and Joan and-a who knows who
I'm becoming weary of waiting and enduring your unfaithfulness
I'm gettin' tried of waitin' and foolin' around
I'll seek someone who treats me better, without making me feel foolish
I'll find somebody who won't make me feel like a clown
This situation is unsustainable; change is necessary
This can't go on, Lord knows you got to change, baby
When I come home, baby
-My house is dark and my pots are cold
-You're hangin' round, baby
-With Jean and Joan and-a who knows who
-I'm gettin' tried of waitin' and foolin' around
-I'll find somebody who won't make me feel like a clown
-This can't go on, Lord knows you got to change, baby
