[Chorus] Don't count your chickens before they hatch (No-no-no) You better treat me like a lady You ain't got my lovin' yet Don't count your chickens before they hatch (No-no-no) You better treat me with respect Or my love you'll never get [Verse 1] Hey, Mr. Big Shot, what you putting down? Lately when I need you You're nowhere to be found (Look what you putting down) I heard it through the grapevine You've been cheatin' love Well what you see, you ain't got Until you'll respect my love [Pre-Chorus] I ain't no pushover (Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah) I got a bird in the bushes too (Too) Don't be too over-confident (Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah) That bird may not be you (You) [Chorus] Don't count your chickens before they hatch (No-no-no) You better treat me like a lady You ain't got my lovin' yet Don't count your chickens before they hatch (No-no-no) You better treat me with respect Or my love you'll never get [Verse 2] You're gonna blow a good thing (Whoo-whoo) You think I'm under your thumb One day you'll snap your finger (Whoo-whoo) And I will fail to come (You weren't the only one) You brag to your men friends (Whoo-whoo) To make yourself look tall When I leave, they'll laugh at you (Whoo-whoo) And on your knees you'll crawl [Pre-Chorus] I ain't no pushover (Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah) I got a bird in the bushes too (Too) Don't be too over-confident (Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah) That bird may not be you (You) [Chorus] Don't count your chickens before they hatch (No-no-no) You better treat me with respect Or my love you'll never get [Interlude] Oh, oh-oh-oh (You better treat me like a lady) You better treat me like a lady [Chorus] Don't count your chickens before they hatch (No-no-no) You better treat me like a lady You ain't got my lovin' yet Don't count your chickens before they hatch (No-no-no) You better treat me with respect Or my love you'll never get [Outro] Don't count your chickens before they hatch (No-no-no) You better treat me like a lady You ain't got my lovin' yet
