[Intro: Nathan Morris]
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
[Verse 1: Nathan Morris, Boyz II Men]
I don't understand your thinking
Thought we were happy, guess I was mistaken
Gave you all my love and my attention
(Say you don't want me) 'cause something is missing
Gave you all you wanted and you know it's true
All that I was doin' it meant nothing to you
And if I dogged you out, we'd probably be cool
But I was good to you, so good
[Pre-Chorus: Boyz II Men, Nathan Morris]
First you want a guy that's real nice
That'll spend all his dough and his time (And his time)
But then you change your mind and want a thug guy (Thug guy)
That won't act right
It doesn't pay to be the good guy (It don't pay)
You callin' me late nights
Tellin' me how he won't act right
Stayin' with him but he makes you cry (Makes you cry)
Tell me why (Tell me why)
Doesn't pay to be the good guy
[Chorus: Boyz II Men, Nathan Morris]
'Cause every time 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 (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, why
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
[Verse 1: Nathan Morris, Boyz II Men]

And if I dogged you out, we'd probably be cool

There's nothing good in being good guys
Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why, why
