Treat Her Like a Queen - Ekolu

Something ain't right Something just ain't right Lord have mercy babe Listen here Tell me when was the last time You brought her roses home from work Tell me when was the last time You rubbed her feet when she said, "They hurt" Tell me when was the last time You bought a card to tell her how you feel Don't even know when was the last time You lit a candle for a late night meal, tell me How long will it be Before you treat her like your queen? And how long will it take Before she starts coming home too late? And how long will it be Before she starts running in the streets? You better take the time to treat her like your lady You probably don't know when was the last time You stopped to open up her car door And tell me when was the last time You heard say, "Baby, do it once more" Tell me when was the last time You didn't have an argument Don't even know when was the last time You told the truth about where you been Now if this don't apply to you Keep doing what you do But if this shoe fits you well Take a minute just to ask yourself How long will it be Before you treat her like your queen? And how long will it take Before she starts coming home too late? And how long will it be Before she starts running in the streets? You better take the time to treat her like your lady Now see what's old to you Is just like new to the next man What you don't do for her She'll find somebody else who can If you don't wanna lose out On the best thing you ever had You better take it from me You'll only end up just a lonely man See I know what I'm talking about How long will it be Before you treat her like your queen? And how long will it take Before she starts coming home too late? And how long will it be Before she starts running in the streets? You better take the time to treat her like your lady How long will it be Before you treat her like your queen? And how long will it take Before she starts coming home too late? And how long will it be Before she starts running in the streets?

Some of us sailors call her home She's big and she's strong and she's mighty Some of us sailors call her our own Guess that's the reason why I treat her like a lady Just treat her like a lady Now I don't like the sound of the ground movin' 'round Or winds spinnin' out of control California earthquakes, only seem to make a' me Shake, rattle, and roll I've been too long on the mainland Hotels, rental cars, and phones Time to cast 'em aside, catch the very next tide And go back, where I belong Chorus: Some of us sailors call her home She's big and she's strong and she's mighty Some of us sailors call her our own Guess that's the reason why I treat her like a lady Treat her like a lady Now great whales travel the rhumb lines Dodging those deadly harpoons Spawning their young, as their ancestors done In the depths of her hidden lagoons There're times I find myself with them And times I feel as they do We're on a similar course, it's just a different source But I'm in danger of extinction too Chorus: Some of us sailors call her home She's big and she's strong and she's mighty Some of us sailors call her our own Guess that's the reason why I treat her like a lady Treat her like a lady Treat her like a lady Treat her like a lady And miss her when I'm gone (Lady, lady) treat her like a lady (Lady, lady) treat her like a lady (Lady, lady) got to treat her like a lady (Lady, lady) treat her like a lady Lady, lady Lady, lady Lady, lady
