Good Guy

I don't understand your thinkin'
You wanna be happy, guess I was mistaken
Baby want my love one night, then just
Say you don't want me
'Cuz something is missin'

Baby girl, you want it and you know it's true
All that I was doin', it meant nothing to you
And if I dogged you out, we'd probably be cool
But I was good to you, so good

Don't you want a guy that's real nice
That'll spend all his doe and his time
Then you change your mind and want a thug guy
That won't act right
It doesn't pay to be the good guy
You callin' me on late nights
Tellin' me how he won't act right
Stayin' with him but he makes you cry
Tell me why
Doesn't pay to be the good guy

Every time I try to be the good guy
You take me for granted, throw me to the side
Rather have a man that'll tell you lies
Tell me why? Tell me why? Tell me why?

Why should I be the good guy?
And be left for the man that don't treat you right
There's nothing good in being good guys
Tell me why? Tell me why? Tell me why?

I don't understand your reason
Sayin' you love me, then sayin' you're leavin'
The situation here is really changin'
Don't wanna fall in love 'cuz you play me

Oh
You gotta be kiddin' me
No
Been tryin' to get rid of me
I do more for you than any brother would do
I was good to you, so good

Don't you want a guy that's real nice
That'll spend all his doe and his time
Then you change your mind and want a thug guy
That won't act right
It doesn't pay to be the good guy
You callin' me on late nights
Tellin' me how he won't act right
Stayin' with him but he makes you cry
Tell me why
Doesn't pay to be the good guy

Every time I try to be the good guy
You take me for granted, throw me to the side
Rather have a man that'll tell you lies
Tell me why? Tell me why? Tell me why?

Why should I be the good guy?
And be left for the man that don't treat you right
There's nothing good in being good guys
Tell me why? Tell me why? Tell me why?

I was good to you
Played the fool for you
You messed it up for the next girl in my life
I never knew
Do the things I do for you
Our love just wasn't true
I was good to you, so good to you
So good to you
Every time I try

Every time I try to be the good guy
You take me for granted, throw me to the side
Rather have a man that'll tell you lies
Tell me why? Tell me why? Tell me why?

Why should I be the good guy?
And be left for the man that don't treat you right
There's nothing good in being good guys
Tell me why? Tell me why? Tell me why?

Every time I try to be the good guy
You take me for granted, throw me to the side
Rather have a man that'll tell you lies
Tell me why? Tell me why? Tell me why?

Why should I be the good guy?
And be left for the man that don't treat you right
There's nothing good in being good guys
Tell me why? Tell me why? Tell me why?

Every time I try to be the good guy
You take me for granted, throw me to the side
Rather have a man that'll tell you lies
Tell me why? Tell me why? Tell me why?

Why should I be the good guy?
And be left for the man that don't treat you right
There's nothing good in being good guys
Tell me why? Tell me why? Tell me why?

Every time I try to be the good guy
You take me for granted, throw me to the side
Rather have a man that'll tell you lies
Tell me why? Tell me why? Tell me why?

Why should I be the good guy?
And be left for the man that don't treat you right
There's nothing good in being good guys
Tell me why? Tell me why? Tell me why?
