Well, you say you're mine, but baby you don't show it
You better fly right, 'cause before you know it
I'm gonna set my foot right down on you
Gonna stop your strut, baby till you say you're through

I'm gonna turn you around and put you upside down
If that don't stop your runnin' around
I'm gonna set my foot right down on you
Gonna stop your strut, baby till you say you're through

Hey!

A-well, you tell me this and you tell me that
How come your dog bites me instead of that other cat
I'm gonna set my foot right down on you
Gonna stop your strut, baby till you say you're through

Well, you say you're mine, but baby you don't show it
You better fly right, 'cause before you know it
I'm gonna set my foot right down on you
Gonna stop your strut, baby till you say you're through

Hey!

I'm gonna turn you around and put you upside down
If that don't stop your runnin' around
I'm gonna set my foot right down on you
Gonna stop your strut, baby till you say you're through

A-well, you tell me this and you tell me that
How come your dog bites me instead of that other cat
I'm gonna set my foot right down on you
Gonna stop your strut, baby till you say you're through
(You say you're though...)
