Cooder, Ry - Don't Mess Up A Good Thing Lyrics
Good thing, good thing, good thing
You been cheating on me, now, baby
You know I know it's true
Ain't nobody in this whole wide world
Gonna love you like I do
Gonna keep on fooling 'round now, baby
Gonna mess up a good thing
Gonna mess up a good thing, all right
Well, I might of cheated just a little bit baby
Like many others do
But when I get my little old paycheck now
It goes right back to you
Don't you be no fool, don't you be no fool
'Cause if you keep on fooling around now, baby
They tell me you got a part-time lover
Who's living way cross town
It won't be but a little while, baby
Before you put me down
Don't you be no fool, don't you be no fool
Gonna keep on fooling 'round now, baby
Gonna mess up a good thing
Gonna mess up a good thing, all right
Let me tell you something
Now, don't you go sneaking across town, baby
To catch me doing wrong
Don't you know everybody's jealous, baby
'Cause we got a thing going on
Don't you be no fool, don't you be no fool
If you keep on fooling 'round now baby
Gonna mess up a good thing
Gonna mess up a good thing
Good thing (You're messing up a good thing)
Messing up a good thing
Good thing

Cooder, Ry Don't Mess Up A Good Thing Comments
There's a reason this guy never made the big time.
This was such a great dance song, I love Ry Cooder's music!
First digital album ever recorded by a major label. After this, analog started dying.
I recall.
Ry Cooder - Dont Mess Up A Good Thing
Sorry Willy Abboton.......no Bobby Womack on THIS album or tune. "Good Thing' was Chaka & Ry all the way.
+Albert Diaz my mistake!
Cool, but who are YOU?
I am Willy Agboton you answered to! ;-)
Written by Oliver Sain, a St. Louis blues/R&B original.
Chaka Khans voice makes a good start to good one...
One of the best albums ever!!!
I used to have it A Englund, I haven't heard it in years, loving hearing it again and agree with you!
decades are passing, not the good things.........Ry Cooder+Chaka Khan is/was one good thing for sure !
feat Chaka Khan and Bobby Womack!
One of the greatest rock albums anyone ever bothered to make!
... and with Chaka Khan!! It´s a treat.
Just a so great lp.
