Lyrics: 

Mm, mm, mm, mm
Something ain't right, mm, mm
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
Tell me
And how long will it take
Before she starts coming home too late
(Can you tell me)
And how long will it be (Oh yeah)
Before she starts running in the streets
You better take the time
To treat her like your lady
(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 her 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've been

Now, if this don't apply to you
(If this don't apply to you)
Keep doin' what you do
(Keep doin' what you do)
But if the shoe fits you well (Oh, oh)
Take a minute just to ask yourself (Just sixty seconds now)

How long will it be (How long)
Before you treat her like your queen
(Can you tell me)
And how long will it take
(Lord have mercy, babe)
Before she starts coming home too late
(You don't want that to happen)
And how long will it be (Whoa, oh, oh)
Before she starts running in the streets
You better take the time
(You better take the time)
To treat her like your lady
(Treat that woman like your lady, oh-whoa)

Now see what's old to you
Is just like new to the next man (That's right)
What you don't do for her (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 only end up just a lonely man
See, I know what I'm talking about

How long will it be (How long)
Before you treat her like your queen
(Oh, oh)
And how long will it take (How long)
Before she starts coming home too late
(You don't want that to happen, no)
And how long will it be
(See, I know what I'm talking about)
Before she starts running in the streets (Yeah)
You better take the time
(You better take the time)
To treat her like your lady
(You better run to her, oh)

How long will it be
(While you're running out there in the streets)
Before you treat her like your queen
(She's probably out hanging with somebody else)
And how long will it take
(You don't want that to happen, no, no)
Before she starts coming home too late
(Oh, Lord have mercy, no)
And how long will it be
(You better take the time)
Before she starts running in the streets
(Treat her like a lady)
You better take the time
To treat her like your lady
