Lyrics Honey Cone – Somebody Is Always Messing Up A Good Thing
Text:
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah…
Somebody, somebody is always messing up a good thing (yeah)
Somebody, somebody is always messing up a good thing
We have enough deep affection
You had your good times of drinking
Getting away of your thinking
You tried to please the crowd (you tried to please the people)
And all of your so-called friends
Now you’re falling back down
You gotta get up and start it all over again
Somebody, somebody is always messing up a good thing (yeah)
Somebody, somebody is always messing up a good thing
Ooh, you have so much money
But oh, you lost it all
Now you’re just like a baby
You got to learn to crawl
And when you didn’t have a dime (didn’t have no money)
What was yours was sure not fine
Oh, you worked so hard to make it
But you turn around and let the good guy take it
Somebody, somebody is always messing up a good thing (yeah)
Somebody, somebody is always messing up a good thing, oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah…
Somebody, somebody is always messing up a good thing (yeah)
Somebody, somebody is always messing up a good thing, oh
You must have found out, you must have found out
It’s gonna be alright, gonna be alright
Oh, somebody is always messing up a good thing, oh
Somebody is always messing up, oh…
Somebody, somebody is always messing up a good thing (yeah)
Oh baby, somebody is always messing up
…
