Treat Me Like Your Mother Lyrics

Don't act like you can't act
i know i seen you do it
you better learn to shake hands
and treat me like your mother

Don't act like you can't act
stand up like a man
you better learn to shake hands
and treat me like your mother

You came on too late
You came on too late now
You came on too late
to do a thing

C'mon look me in the eye
you want to try to tell a lie
i bet you can't and you know why
i'm just like your mother

aa look me in the eye now
you want to try to tell a lie
you can't and you know why
i'm just like your mother

You came on too late
You came on too late now
You came on too late
play dumb, play dead, play straight

Who's got it figured out
play dumb, play dead, play straight
Who's got it figured out
play straight tryin' to manipulate

yeah
M-A-N-I-P-U-LATE

am i too
am i late (x2)
am i
am i too late

Who's got it figured out
left right left right go it figured out
Who's got it figured out play straight
stand up like a man

you better learn to shake hands
look me in the eye now
and treat me like your mother
C'mon look me in the eye
you want to try to tell a lie

you can't and you know why
i'm just like your mother
play dumb play dead
yeah, tryin' to manipulate

You blink when you breathe and
you breathe when you lie
you blink when you lie (x3)

who's got it figured out
let's right let's right go it figured out
who's got it figured out play straight (straight)
tryin' to manipulate

who's got it figured out (left)
left right, left right, left right,
who's got it figured out
play straight tryin' to manipulate

You blink when you breathe and
you breathe when you lie
you blink when you lie
who's got it figured out play straight

The Dead Weather is an alternative rock band that formed in Nashville, Tennessee, United States in 2009. They consist of Alison Mosshart (vocals, guitar), Dean Fertita (guitar, organ), Jack Lawrence (bass, drums) and Jack White (drums, vocals, guitar).

All members of the band are from other, well known alternative rock groups. Mosshart is a member of The Kills, Fertita is a member of Queens of the Stone Age, Lawrence is a member of The Greenhornes and The Raconteurs and White was a member of The White Stripes and The Raconteurs.

White produced their album, Horehound, which was released in the US on July 14th 2009. The album was recorded in three weeks at White's own Third Man Studio in Nashville. This group sparks particular interest because Jack White, well known for guitar skills, played drums with this band.. White’s last booking as a drummer was with the Detroit punk outfit Goober and the Peas, aged 19. Read more on Last.fm.
