"You're Messing Up A Good Thing" lyrics

"You're Messing Up A Good Thing"

Sha la la la la la la la -- la la [male chorus background sings]
[Bobby sings:] I keep on tryin' to make you believe it --
[Bobby singing:]
Oh, girl lemme tell ya something
and I hope you understand
I wouldn't do anything to hurt ya'
'cause I'm not that kind of man

Always accusing me -- of saying I'm doing ya' wrong
If you don't believe I'm workin'
then, why you're staying at home!?
Tryin' my best to give
but you twist around everything I said
just to make me feel bad
Baby -- Hey, Baby
Oh baby, yeah
Tell me how can we keep on fighting this way

Sha la la la la la la la -- la la [male chorus backround sings]

I cant understand it [Bobby over background singing]

[Bobby sings:]
Oh girl I love ya
but it hate to see you cry
it's just as hard for me to cume home
as it is to say goodbye

Darling you're mine -- I'm don't doin what ya say I do --
Girl I tell you everywhere I go -- you can check it if you wanted to
Why do complain so much -- job sacrificing too
Is it because you don't love me -- as much I love you?

Hey baby [2x, with female chorus in background]
I keep callin ya baby
I keep on hopin' ya baby
Ohh, baby [with chorus]
Tell me how can we go fighting this way?
Oh baby, I just can't understand it
can't understand ya, baby
Ohhh Ahh, baby!
