Why Don't You Hit Me Anymore? Lyrics - Singles - God Gettin Funky

You don't look like me 

You don't talk like me 

You don't think like me 

You don't walk like me 

So why should I accept you 

When all you did was keep me down 

But now you're changin' 

How dare you turn yourself around 

(chorus) You used to slap me 

You used to push me into the door 

You used to beat me 

But why don't you hit me anymore? 

So now you say you're sorry 

But I know that's the counseling talking 

So you're struggling to keep me on 

The tightrope that I'm walking 

You took the strap to me 

But I played your little games 

I came to take it for granted 

Why did you stop my pain? 

(chorus) 

Well now that it's over 

Where will I get my welts 

How do I recover 

When I don't get the belt? 

(chorus) 

So why don't you hit me anymore?
