lyrics

Now baby, how can you be so mean to me
Tell me, baby, how can you be so mean to me
'Cause I been good to you, oh!, good as good can be

I give you love, give you love, just as much, as much as love can be
Oh! baby, how can you be mean to me
Tell me why!?

(solo)

I'm 'a in 'a here, honey, I'm in 'a here waitin' for you
I'm in 'a here, waitin' for you
Oh baby, can you tell me, how can you be so mean to me

Now baby, tell me, how can you be, how can you be so mean to me
I been so good to you, been as good, as good can be
Tell me again...

What? You're leavin' with my friend!!!
And you're keepin' my ring!!!
Now, that's insane, oh you just melted my brain

Oh honey, you're mean, oh!..
