Don't Be Cruel

Don't Be Cruel - Straight Up

Written by：Antonio Reid/Kenneth Babyface Edmonds/Daryl Simmons

Girl the only thing that matters in my life

Is that I'm down for you and treat you right

Got no cause to treat me cold as ice

Ohhhh girl

As long as I've been giving my love to you

You should be giving me your love too

But you just keep on acting just like a fool

You know it ain't cool

I don't be cruel

Cause I would never be that cruel to you

A no oh a nooo

I don't be cruel

Girl you need to change your attitude

A no oh

I don't be cruel

Hey yo Kimmy what's up with this attitude

I thought I was being real good to you

I treat you sweet take you out at night

But you never say thanks girl that ain't right

I bought you diamonds even gave you pearls

I took you for a cruise all around the world

I treat you high post but you play me close

And if I put a drink up you won't even toast

Girl I work so hard for you from 9 to 5

So you could have the finer things in life

Since you're the kind that's never satisfied

Ohhhh girl

As long as I've been giving my heart to you

You should be giving me your heart too

But you just keep on acting just like a fool

You know it ain't cool

I don't be cruel

Cause I would never be that cruel to you

A no oh a nooo

I don't be cruel

Girl you need to change your attitude

A no oh

I don't be cruel

From fancy cars the diamond rings

I've just about given you everything

There's really not much I won't do for you

I bought you 12 yellow roses and candy too

I like to be up front and never play the back

But the way you treat me girl it's like a heart attack

I'm a real troop trooper aiming for the top

And with you by my side big dollars I'll clock

Ohhhh girl

As long as I've been giving my love to you

You should be giving me your love too

But you just keep on acting just like a fool

You know it ain't cool

It just ain't cool

I don't be cruel

We used to hang out tough

Just kicking around

We discovered a love that had never been found

You gave me your heart I gave you my mind

But a true love affair we could never find

Although I want you bad I can let you go

Cause there's a lot of girls out there that won't say no

Go to the fact that I want you Jackie

I want you more than human eyes can see

But you had to start giving trying to make a killing

Though about the dollars I make

And you were willing

To be with me Bobby B

But with a bad attitude I can't compete

Now you know my name now I know your game

You wanna be with me

You gotta be the same way that another girl would be

And if you wanna be with me

I don't be cruel

Don't be don't be

Cause I would never be that cruel to you

Don't be don't be

I know I know

I don't be cruel

Don't be don't be

Girl you need to change your attitude

Don't be don't be
