A good thing, a good thing

You been cheating on me now

You know i know it's true

But ain't nobody in

The whole wide world

Gonna love you like i do

Don't you be no fool

Don't you be no fool

You gonna keep on

Fooling around now, baby

You're gonna mess up a good thing

You're gonna mess up a good thing

Now i might've cheated

Just a little bit, baby

Like all others do

But when i get my paycheck, baby

I rush right home to you

A good thing, yeah, yeah, yeah

A good thing, yeah, baby

A good thing, oh, yeah

A good thing, come on, baby

You tell me that you

Got a part-time lover

Living way across town

And it ain't gonna be

But a little while, baby

Before you put me down

Now don't you come

Sneaking across town, baby

To catch me doing wrong

Cause you know

Everybody's jealous, baby

Cause we got a thing going on

A good thing, yeah, yeah, yeah

A good thing, yeah, baby

A good thing, oh, yeah

A good thing, come on, baby

A good thing, yeah, yeah, yeah

A good thing, yeah, baby

A good thing, good thing
