The O'Jays - Shiftless, Shady, Jealous Kind Of People

They're sly, slick and they're mean
Meanest people you've ever seen
They're in every corner of the world
Man, woman, boy, girl
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

They're cruel and shrewd in their sly
All these times they'll take you for a ride
They'll get you in a corner
And do what they wanna to your mind (To to your mind, to your mind)
Oh, you better watch out for

Shiftless, shady, jealous kind of people
Watch out, watch out
Shiftless, shady, jealous kind of people
Watch out, watch out They can't stand to see no one else
Keeping their business to themselves
'Cause misery loves company (That ain't gon' last)
(Ain't gon' last, ain't gon' last, no)
They're cold, they'll fold and don't care
Don't wanna see you getting nowhere
Their friendship's all fake, so hear what I say
Stay away
Stay away, stay away from

Shiftless, shady, jealous kind of people
Watch out, watch out
Shiftless, shady, jealous kind of people
Watch out, watch out

Said you better watch out, watch out, watch out, watch out
Said you better watch out, watch out, watch out, watch out for

Shiftless, shady, jealous kind of people
Watch out, watch out
Shiftless, shady, jealous kind of people
Watch out, watch out
Shiftless, shady, jealous kind of people
Watch out, watch out
Shiftless, shady, jealous kind of people
Watch out, watch out
Shiftless, shady, jealous kind of people
Watch out, watch out
Shiftless, shady, jealous kind of people
Watch out, watch out
