Baby you're just a user,
I know you've been runnin' around.
Well girl I'm not the loser you think,
I ain't nobody's clown.
You're not gonna get the best of me,
There are three or four girls I got on a string,
Tonight I'm goin' out and I'll do my thing.
What do you think of that,
Tit for tat.
Tit for tat.

Baby I mean to show ya
Messin' round doesn't pay.
You're gonna get back what I owe you in spades,
Double trouble's comin' your way.
You're not gonna get the best of me,
When I make up my mind, I'm a go-getter
I can do what you do, but I do it much better.
What do you think of that,
Tit for tat.
Tit for tat.

What's good for the goose
Is good for the gander
And I'm gonna do myself right.
Baby you'll discover
I'm some kinda lover,
The barn door's open tonight.

Girl you're just a hassle,
Kickin' my heart around.
A man's home is his castle of love
But you tore the damn thing down.
You're not gonna get the best of me, no,
I'm splittin' the scene, gonna have me some fun,
Tonight number two is gonna be number one.
What do you think of that,
Tit for tat.
Tit for tat.

You're not gonna get the best of me, no,
I'm splittin' the scene, gonna have me some fun,
Tonight number two is gonna be number one.
What do you think of that,
Tit for tat.
I'm tellin' you,
What do you think of that,
Tit for tat.
