Anita
When I met you, you were seventeen
And still livin' with your mother
You were a little girl so young and green
How you needed a big brother
You looked at me for all the ways that I knew
To sow the desire
Now who's this man who wants to marry you
And make our love a liar?
He treats you good, I'll treat you better
Oh, Anita
He comes on strong, but we'll come together
Oh, Anita
Now you ask me to give you away
Lead the lamb to the slaughter
I can't be cool because all the words you say
Get me hot under the collar
He treats you good, I'll treat you better
Oh, Anita
He comes on strong, but we'll come together
Oh, Anita
We come together, Anita
Anita
Oh, Anita, I can't forget
I've played so cool and shady
I didn't know the girl I met
Was a woman and not a lady
(He treats you good, I'll treat you better)
Anita
He treats you good, but I'll treat you better
Oh, Anita
(He comes on strong, we'll come together)
(Oh, Anita)
(He treats you good, I'll treat you better)
(Oh, Anita)
Oh, Anita
Oh, Anita
(Oh, Anita)
(Oh, Anita)
I need you, Anita
(He treats you good, I'll treat you better)
(Oh, Anita)
