You've got to change your evil ways, baby
Before I stop lovin' you.
You've got to change, baby
And every word that I say is true.
You've got a bad habit, water under the train.
You've got to change your evil ways.
I can't keep myself shut up
For one more day.
'Cause you've got me runnin' and hidin' all over town.
You've got me sneakin' and peepin' and runnin' you down.
This can't go on...
Lord knows you've got to change, baby.
Baby.
Your evil ways, baby.
Baby.
When I come home, baby.
My house is dark and my thoughts are cold.
You runnin' around, baby.
With Jean and Joan and who knows who.
You got a bad habit, water under the train.
Baby, change your evil ways.
I have lost my will to play.
Load me up another day,
'Cause you've got me runnin' and hidin' all over town.
You've got me sneakin' and peepin' and runnin' you down.
This can't go on...
Lord knows you've got to change, baby.
Baby.
Your evil ways, baby.
Baby.
You've got me runnin' and hidin' all over town.
You've got me sneakin' and peepin' and runnin' you down.
I'm getting tired of waiting and fooling around
For someone who won't make me feel like a clown.
Baby, change your evil ways.
Baby, change your evil ways.
Baby, change your evil ways.
Baby, change your evil ways.
You've got me runnin' and hidin' all over town.
You've got me sneakin' and peepin' and runnin' you down.
I'm getting tired of waiting and fooling around
For someone who won't make me feel like a clown.
This can't go on...
