Better Watch Your Step

Koko Taylor

[4 bar intro]

Chorus:
You'd better watch your step now, baby
Something bad might happen to you
You'd better watch your step now, baby
Something bad might happen to you
You done messed up a good thing
All my love I had for you

If you don't want my loving
Why do you keep hanging around
I'm tired of being your puppy, baby
Your trash bag on the ground

You play around my house, baby
Seven days a week
Soon as I turn my back
You get a woman out in the street

Chorus:
You'd better watch your step now, baby
Something bad might happen to you
You done messed up a good thing
All my love I had for you

Tell me, how can you love me
When you're playing that same old game
I told you once and I told you twice
But you're doing that same thing

I'm tired of seeing you barking
Up the same old tree
You say that you don't love me
Why don't you set me free?

Chorus:
You'd better watch your step now, baby
Something bad might happen to you
You done messed up a good thing
All my love I had for you

[2 x 12-bar harp solo]

You been doing me wrong, baby
Since I don't know when
Now your bridge is crumbling
And your good thing's found a friend

Chorus:
You'd better watch your step now, baby
Something bad might happen to you
You done messed up a good thing
All my love I had for you
