I Wouldn't Treat a Dog (The Way You Treated Me)

When I was up

You'd always come around

When I need a friend

You could never be found

I got a hole

Where my heart used to be

I wouldn't treat a dog, no

The way you treated me

When time was good, love

All of your lovin' was the same

Oh, when the goin' got rough

Boy, you hardly knew my name

You locked me out

And you threw away the key, baby

I wouldn't treat a dog, no no no

The way you treated me

Got me cryin for the love

That I'm needin'

Beggin' like a dog for a bone

Boy, I've spent most of my time grievin'

You turn you back

And you leave me, one of these old days

Lord knows that it's true

Just when you need me the most

I'll be walking out on you

When you say

As you're beggin' down on your knees, baby

I wouldn't treat a dog, no no no

The way you treated me

The way you treated me

I wouldn't treat a dog, no no no

The way you treated me

No, no I wouldn't do it

No, baby, I couldn't do it

I wouldn't treat a dog, no no no

The way you treated me

No baby, the way you treated me
