Good thing, good thing, good thing 
You been cheating on me, now, baby 
You know I know it's true 
Ain't nobody in this whole wide world 
Gonna love you like I do 
Don't you be no fool, don't you be no fool 
Gonna keep on fooling 'round now, baby 
Gonna mess up a good thing 
Gonna mess up a good thing, all right 

Well, I might of cheated just a little bit baby 
Like many others do 
But when I get my little old paycheck now 
It goes right back to you 
Don't you be no fool, don't you be no fool 
'Cause if you keep on fooling around now, baby 
Gonna mess up a good thing, you're going to mess up a good thing 

They tell me you got a part-time lover 
Who's living way cross town 
It won't be but a little while, baby 
Before you put me down 
Don't you be no fool, don't you be no fool 
Gonna keep on fooling 'round now, baby 
Gonna mess up a good thing 
Gonna mess up a good thing, all right 

Let me tell you something 
Now, don't you go sneaking across town,baby 
To catch me doing wrong 
Don't you know everybody's jealous, baby 
'Cause we got a thing going on 
Don't you be no fool, don't you be no fool 
If you keep on fooling 'round now baby 
Gonna mess up a good thing 
Gonna mess up a good thing 

Good thing [You're messing up a good thing] 
Messing up a good thing 
Good thing
