All my friends had to ask me something they didn't understand
How I get all the women in the palm of my hand
I told them treat her like a lady; do the best you can do
You gotta treat her like a lady, she'll give in to you
Lord, you can seek, you know what I mean

I know you've heard that the woman soon takes advantage of you
Let me tell you my friend there just ain't no substitute, you ought to
Treat her like a lady do the best you can do
You gotta treat her like a lady, she'll give in to you
Lord, you can seek, you know what I mean

Oh, you've got to love her, tease her, but most of all you've got to please her
You've got to hold her and want her and make her feel you'll always need her
You know a woman is sentimental and so easy to upset
So make her feel that she's for real and she'll give you happiness
Woh, oh, oh, strange as it seems, you know you can't treat a woman mean

So my friend there you have it, the easy simple way
If you fail to do this, don't blame her if she looks my way
'Cause I'm gonna treat her like a lady; so affectionately
I'm gonna treat her like a lady, she'll give in to me
Lord, you can seek, you know what I mean

Oh, you've gotta treat her like a lady, do the best you can do
You gotta treat her like a lady, she'll give in to you
Oh, you've gotta treat her like a lady, do the best you can do
You gotta treat her like a lady, she'll give in to you
