Triflin'

(album: The Devil In Me - 1977)

(You're just trifling with my love, you're no good
You better pack your bags, my love)
Mm, you're one trifling thang

You might say that you mean well
But you can't fool me, I can tell
You're trifling
(You're just trifling with my love, you're no good) And you're no good!
You can put on a real good show
But I'm not buying it, 'cause I know
You're trifling
(Oughta pack your bags, my love) Mm, you're one trifling thang

First you're with me, then you're not
(You gotta make up your mind)
Whether you're cold, or whether you're hot
You must be crazy!
You can't just come around here, when you're good and ready
'Cause I've got to have somebody, to rock me a lil' more steady, baby
Oh yes, just like the rest, at first you reel me in
Wearing that worn-out flirting job, two time in [?]

(You're triflin') So don't tell me that you mean well
(Yeah, you're triflin') I'm warning you, I can tell
(With my love) You're trifling
(You're just trifling with my love, you're no good) And you're no good!
(You're triflin') And you can put on a real good show
(Yeah, you're triflin') But I won't be there, 'cause I know
(With my love) You're trifling
(Better pack your bags, my love) Mm, you're one trifling thang

You say you're mine and then you're gone (missing and gone)
Well, here you come, saying you were wrong (there you go again)
As you got what it takes, to turn some heads around
But I've got some news for ya, and you better write this down, baby:
You might use Mary Ann, Jo-Ann, and Billie Jean
So you better use them while you can, 'cause you never will use me

(You're triflin') So don't tell me that you mean well
(Yeah, you're triflin') I'm warning you, I can tell
(With my love) You're trifling
(You're just trifling with my love, you're no good) Mm, you're no good!
(You're triflin') And you can put on a real good show
(Yeah, you're triflin') But I'm not buying it, 'cause I know
(With my love) You're trifling
(Oughta pack your bags, my love) Mm, you're one trifling thang

(Do-do-do-do-ah!) Ah, sing it girls!
(Do-do-do-do-ah!)
(Do-do-do-do-ah!)
(Do-do-do-do-ah!)
(Do-do-do-do-ah!)
(Do-do-do-do-ah!)
