Boyz II Men - Good Guy Lyrics






Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh ohh

I don't understand your thinking
I thought we were happy, guess I was mistaken
Gave you all my love and my attention
Say you don't want me
Cuz something is missing
Gave you all you wanted and you know it's true
All that I was doin' meant nothing to you
And if I told you why, we'd probably be cool
But I was good to you, so good

But you want a guy that's real nice
That'll spend all his dough and his time
But then you change your mind and want a thug guy
Who won't act right
It doesn't pay to be the good guy

You callin' me late nights
Tellin' me how he won't act right
Stay with him but he makes you cry
Tell me why
It doesn't pay to be the good guy
'Cause every time I'll be right

I try to be the good guy
You take me for granted,throw me to the side
Rather have a man that'll tell you lies
Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why

Why should I be the good guy
And get left for the man that don't treat you right
There's nothing good in being good guys
Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why

I don't understand your reason
Sayin' you love me, then sayin' your leavin'
The situation here has really changed me
Don't wanna fall in love cuz you play me (oh)
You gotta be kiddin' me (no)
You tryin' to get rid of me
I did more for you than any brother would do
I was good to you, so good to you

Plus you want a guy that's real nice
That'll spend all his dough and his time
But then you change your mind and want a thug guy
Who won't act right
It doesn't pay to be the good guy

You callin' me late nights
Tellin' me how he won't act right
Stay with him but he makes you cry
Tell me why
It doesn't pay to be the good guy
'Cause every time I'll be right

I was good to you (I played the fool)
Played the fool for you
You messed it up for the next girl in my life
I'll never do the things I do for you
Our love just wasn't true
I was good to you, so good to you
So good to you
Every time I try...

    Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh ohh
    I don't understand your thinking
    You wanna be happy, guess I was mistaken
    Want my love one night, then just
    Say you don't want me
    Cuz something is missing
    Babygirl, you want it and you know it's true
    All that I was doin' everything I could do
    And if I dogged you out, we'd probably be cool
    But I was good to you, so good
    Don't you want a guy that's real nice
    That'll spend all his doe and his time
    Then you change your mind and want a thug guy
    That won't act right
    It doesn't pay to be the good guy
    You callin' me on late nights
    Tellin' me how he won't act right
    Stayin' with him but he makes you cry
    Tell me why
    Doesn't pay to be the good guy
    Everytime I try to be the good guy
    You take me for granted, put me to the side
    Rather have a man that'll tell you lies
    Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
    Why should I be the good guy
    And be there for the guy that don't treat you right
    There's nothing good in being good guys
    Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
    I don't understand your reason
    Sayin' you love me, then sayin' you're leavin'
    The situation here is really changin'
    Don't wanna fall in love cuz you play me (oh)
    You gotta be kiddin' me (no)
    Been tryin' to get rid of me
    I do more for you than any brotha would do
    I was good to you, so good
    Don't you want a guy that's real nice
    That'll spend all his doe and his time
    Then you change your mind and want a thug guy
    That won't act right
    It doesn't pay to be the good guy
    You callin' me on late nights
    Tellin' me how he won't act right
    Stayin' with him but he makes you cry
    Tell me why
    Doesn't pay to be the good guy
    Everytime I try to be the good guy
    You take me for granted, put me to the side
    Rather have a man that'll tell you lies
    Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
    Why should I be the good guy
    And be there for the guy that don't treat you right
    There's nothing good in being good guys
    Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
    I was good to you (I played the fool)
    Played the fool for you
    You messed it up for the next girl in my life
    I'll never be right
    Do the things I do for you
    Our love just wasn't true
    I was good to you, so good to you
    So good to you
    Everytime I try...
    Everytime I try to be the good guy
    You take me for granted, put me to the side
    Rather have a man that'll tell you lies
    Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
    Why should I be the good guy
    And be there for the guy that don't treat you right
    There's nothing good in being good guys
    Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
