Alright!
And now you punk, you gotta get ready
But I can't dig that backstabbin'
But I don't do no damn squealin'
But I had my boys on her heels
Carry on, carry on, payback melody
Da dee ra da, da dee ra da, da dee ra da!
Don't do me no darn favor
Don't want me to see what you doin' to me
For the big payback
Get down with my woman, that ain't right
Get ready you mother for the big payback
Get ready you mother for the big payback
Get ready, I need it, I need a hit again.
Gonna get some hits, I need those hits
Got to get back!
Gotta deal with ya, gotta deal with ya!
Hey, I'm a man, I'm a man...
Hey, let me tell you!
Hey! Get ready, that's a fact
Hit me back.
Hollerin' n' cussin', you wanna fight
I can dig rappin'. I'm ready! I can dig scrapping
I can do wheelin', I can do dealin'
I can get back! I got to deal with you!
I don't care what she does
I don't know karate, but I know ka razor
I need some get back!
I want revenge, I want revenge, my...
I want revenge, I want revenge, my...

I'm a son of a man, but don't they tell you that pappa can
I'm mad!

Just run that mother out of town
Let me hit them, hit them, Fred hit them
Lookie here!
Lord!

Make her get up, make her get up, get out
Make her get up, make her get up, get out
My patience ends, I want revenge
No, don't...
Payback is a thing you gotta see
Payback!(The big payback)
Revenge!
Revenge!
Revenge! I'm mad!
Saw what she had comin', told a lie
She broke down and she wanted to cry
She'll be doing just like she was
Sold me out for chicken change
Somebody drink out the righteous cup
Take her, take that woman, it's one place she found
Take those kids and raise them up
That's it! Payback!
That's where I land, on the big payback
The brother get ready, that's a fact
The same one. The same one. The same one.
Tried to make a deal, she wanted to squeal
Wow! Smokin'!
You get down with my girlfriend, that ain't right.
You said my woman had it all arranged
You sold me out for chicken change
You told me that they, they had it all arranged
You took my money, you got my honey
