Lately I've been feeling this way, tell me if I'm wrong
Only thing I felt in weeks, is when I leaned in to know

Singing, love don't treat ya like that
Not when it's around
Love won't treat you like that
No, honey, no

Hey Mama, can't stand around and sing
Hey baby, where we gonna be
Hey Mama, I'm tired of what I see
And I can't bother to wait if people don't want to change

Saying, love don't treat ya like that
Don't tell me I don't know
I know that love won't treat you like that
I won't let go

Ain't it time now when we rise up and we fight it
Say you're a lover man
Then tell me why, why, why, what's it gonna take to know that

Love don't treat ya like that, babe, I'm letting you know
Saying love don't treat ya like that, yeah, I know

Only thing I wanted was to try and find a new way
Lately I've been feeling that it might be the ending of days

Saying, love don't treat ya like that, just don't let go
Yeah, love don't treat ya like that, I'm letting you know

It's a time we find a new way
Even if they come from all sides
They trying to turn us in to criminals
Well come anyway
And you wondered how
Take me, I won't hesitate to tell them
That love won't treat ya like that babe I'm letting you know

Love don't treat ya like that babe I'm letting ya know
Saying love don't treat ya like that babe I'm letting ya know

We're preyed upon in their little game and we cry
Deep in the night, deep in your woes
Baby, I can't let 'em and I won't let go

Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm

There's a line in the sand
I think we'll have to cross it man
If-if you got-got-got to t-t-t-tell ya
To tell ya why, why, why, why, why, why

Saying love don't treat ya like that, babe, I'm letting ya know
Saying love don't treat ya like that I'm letting ya know
Saying love don't treat ya like that, babe, I'm letting ya know
Saying love don't treat ya like that I'm not letting go
