Don't Mess Up A Good Thing

Fontella Bass, Bobby McClure
Album : Chess Pieces: The Very Best Of Chess Records

You been cheating on me
You know my love is true
Ain't nobody in the whole wide world
Gonna love you like I do
[Chorus]
Don't you be no fool
Don't you be no fool
If you keep messing around now baby
You gonna mess up a good thing
You gonna mess up a good thing
I'm might have cheated just a little bit baby
Like all the others do
Ain't about time to get my check
Now I rush it home to you
Don't you be no fool
Don't you be no fool
If you keep messing around now baby
(Good thing)
Gonna mess up a good thing
(Good thing)
You don't know what you're hitting
(Good thing)
Gonna mess up a good thing
(Good thing)
Na na na na na
You tell me that you got a part-time lover
Living away cross town
But it won't be just about little while baby
Before you put me down
[Chorus]
Now don't you go running across town baby
To catch me doing wrong
I'm just a little bit jealous baby
Cause we got a thing going on
[Chorus]
(Good thing)
Gonna mess up a good thing
(Good thing)
You don't know what you're hitting
(Good thing)
Gonna mess up a good thing
(Good thing)
No no no no no
