Girl, make a list
Go out and find yourself a new bad thing
Girl, you need a trip
'Cause he's not worth the misery and pain

Just remember how he would tell you lies
And then pretend that everything is so sweet
Why should you sacrifice if you're not satisfied
He's just a canine runnin' 'round in heat

Girlfriend, how could you let him treat you so bad? Oh
Girlfriend you know you were the best he ever had, oh, oh, oh
Girlfriend, how could you let him treat you so bad? Oh
Girlfriend, you know you were the best he ever had, oh, oh, oh

Girl, you must resist
Don't let him squirm his way into your heart
No, girl, I must insist
You've got to stop the fool before he starts

Just remember how he was so untrue
With all the tacky things he did to you
No need to signify 'cause he's not worth your time
You need to find someone that's true to you

Girlfriend, how could you let him treat you so bad? Oh
Girlfriend, you know you were the best he ever had, oh, oh, oh
Girlfriend, how could you let him treat you so bad? Oh
Baby don't be sad, no
Girlfriend, you know you were the best he ever had, oh, oh, oh

To believe or not to believe
That is the question it just takes a street degree
You've lied your last lie and I've cried my last cry
I'm out the door, babe there's other fish in the sea

Cute, cute, cute, cute, cute
Hey Deele, sing

To believe or not to believe
That is the question it just takes a street degree
You've lied your last lie, I've cried my last cry
I'm out the door, babe there's other fish in the sea

Girlfriend, how could you let him treat you so bad? Oh
Girlfriend, you know you were the best he ever had, oh, oh, oh
Girlfriend, how could you let him treat you so bad? Oh
Girlfriend, you know you were the best he ever had, oh, oh, oh

Don't let him put you down girl, though he's been messing around
You've been used, abused so baby, make your move
You've learned your lesson now so turn this hurt around
You ain't no fool, 'cause you've got to bust loose

Girlfriend, yeah
Girlfriend, how could you let him treat you so bad? Oh
Girlfriend
