[D#m] You got to [G#] change your evil [D#m] ways [G#], [D#m] baby [G#]

You got me [D#m] running and [G#] hiding, all over [D#m] town [G#]

When I come home, baby
My house is dark and my pots are cold
You're hanging 'round, baby
With Jean and Joan and a who knows who

BRIDGE 2:
I'm getting tired of waiting and fooling around
I'll find somebody that won't make me feel like a clown
This can't go on; Lord knows you got to change
