Bobbie Gentry - Ode To Bobbie Gentry... The Capitol Years

Show Off

You know you got me where you want me
And you can treat me any old way
I know you treat me mean just to taunt me
But I'll do anything you say

I'll do anything just to be around you, baby
Even though you treat me cruel
You tell all your friends I'm such a fool for you
Oh yes, I'm such a fool

But don't leave me
Please, don't leave me
Go ahead and put on your show
But baby, don't go

Show off, tell all your friends
Show off, tell all the town
Show off, doesn't matter now
Show off and kick me when I'm down

I've given you my heart and soul
Given you everything I own
And now it's so easy for you to hurt me
By saying you're gonna leave me alone

I've been such a fool for you
Ever since the day I fell
But now I know there is nothing I can do
To get out from under your spell

So don't leave me
Please, don't leave me
Go ahead and put on your show
But baby, don't go

Show off, mm-mm, tell all your friends
Show off, tell all the town
Show off, doesn't matter now
Show off and kick me when I'm down

Show off
Show off
Show off
Show off
Show off
Mm, mm-mm, mm, mm, mm-mm
Show off
Mm-mm
