1
(Now that's a fire!)
2
[Repeat x2]
3
Treat your woman right
4
Or get that burning bed at night
5
You've got to treat her right
6
Treat her right treat her right
7
(Willie!)
8
The women of today ain't with it
9
If you ain't gonna be loyal, forget it
10
I know the deal, so I admit it
11
Because I knew a brother that did it
12
He used to be a nice looking dude, the ladies' choice
13
He would charm them all with the sound of his voice
14
He's not a sucker, a bum, the boy ain't soft
15
He likes to be clean and dress his ass off
16
He was light-skinned with curly hair
17
He would make his girl think he was so sincere
18
Always said "I'm cool," called himself an expert
19
Comin' home every night with lipstick on his shirt
20
She took it like a champ and let him do it
21
Until one day he really blew it
22
Rappin' to girls one day by the dozen
23
And one of those girls was his girlfriend's cousin
24
He was so blind cause he was on a roll
25
Comin' home drunk one night singin' James Brown's soul
26
"Get up-a!" bangin' on the door he said
27
"Get up-a!" and banged once more
28
So she opened the door with a smile on her face
29
Brung him to the bed, untied his shoe lace
30
Took off all his clothes and then she said
31
"Good night sucker" and burned the bed
32
So
33
[Repeat x2]
34
Treat your woman right
35
Or get that burning bed at night
36
You've got to treat her right
37
Treat her right - treat her right
38
Burn 'em up
39
She only burn you can see what's ugly, Willie
40
Now you look like Richard Fire
41
I mean Richard Pryor, Willie
42
Willie, jump in the pool
43
(Now that's a fire!)
44
So never in life think that you're too great
45
Cause it's very thin line between love and hate
46
You see, he wasn't just burned, the boy was torched
47
Burned from head to toe and then so-and-so was scorched
48
He's with the same girl, now he's sincerer
49
She ain't worried about a thing 'cause he ain't goin' nowhere
50
When I see him now I say "yo bro"
51
'Cause he's the darkest brother that I now know
52
No more Casanova, that life is over
53
He used to drink heavy, now he stays sober
54
She burned him bad, now he stays alert
55
But I know when they make love, brother, it hurts
56
You wouldn't think the girl would hurt a fly
57
But she proved that to be a goddamn lie
58
From what I recall, he gives her much respect
59
Point blank, word, she got him in check
60
So
61
[Repeat x2]
62
Treat your woman right
63
Or get that burning bed at night
64
You've got to treat her right
65
Treat her right treat her right
66
See, you can hit 'em, beat 'em, call 'em a creep
67
But remember, homeboy, you've got to sleep
68
So chill, be nice or pay the price
69
Of bein' burned, walk easy like Doctor Ice
70
Get out the house, Willie!
71
(Now that's a fire!)
72
(Fire)
73
Willie's on
74
(Fire)
75
Get out the house, Willie
76
(Fire)
77
Damn, you shoulda seen this
78
(Fire)
79
She burned him bad
80
Damn Willie
81
(Fire)
82
That mama ain't Willie
83
(Fire)
84
If his woman ain't Ms. Willhelmina
85
(Fire)
86
She burned him up
87
She burned him up
88
(Fire)
89
Don't get the burning bed, Willie
90
(Fire)
91
It's too late now
92
You're blacker than black
93
(Fire)
94
You used to be light-skinned, ain't no turnin' back
95
(Fire)
96
You look like some left-over from a cook-out, Willie
97
Yo
98
I told you leave that bitch alone
99
I told ya, Willie
100
I told ya
101
(Aight, that's cool)
