The Real End

Rickie Lee Jones

Once I had a sweet love

Always followed me around

The way I treated my little lamb was like

The Marquis D. Sade and her new clown

I guess I hurt him

I guess I hung up

I guess I should have called him back

I guess I didn't care

Maybe I left him there

Maybe a woman just acts like that



What's a matter?

Hey baby, baby

What's a matter?

Don't you want me?

What's a matter?

Now Baby, baby

What's a matter?

Is this The Real End?



Well, I had some dough,

I had a big car,

I turned around and all the money was spent

I don't know wherever it goes but

That's probably where my baby went

So you got a new boy

He's so fine

He wants to be with you

All the time

Don't tell him he's the only one

Or your new boy becomes a hard to find



What's a matter?

Hey baby, baby

What's a matter?

Don't you want me?

What's a matter?

Now Baby, baby

What's a matter?

Is this The Real End?

(Can I tell you about it?)



Once you find yourself

A better man

Treat him special all of the time

Make him some catfish

Fry it up in bed

Don't leave him hangin' on the telephone line

But keep him guessing

Don't tell him where you are

Keep your old linen to yourself

Keep your bank account

And what you don't worry about,

If you can give,

Well, it just might work out



What's a matter?

Hey baby, baby

What's a matter?

You look so funny

What's a matter?

Now Baby, baby

What's a matter?

Is this the Real End?
