[Verse 1]
She's up early in the morning, dialing your phone
Talkin' 'bout what your man did last night
Course she wouldn't be worried 'bout what your man did
If she had her own thing up tight
[Verse 2]
Now it's all in her plan to get you fighting your man
Hoping that you'll put him down
But when you throw him outdoor, Lord knows
That she'll have him before his feet hit the ground
[Chorus]
You better beware of the dog that bring the bone
She's only trying to break up your home
You better beware of the dog that bring the bone
She's only trying to break up your home
[Verse 3]
She's the leader of the grapevine, always on time
To spread some gossip around
And she'll try to use the one she's talking to
To put the next one down
[Verse 4]
She'll tell you to watch me and me to watch you
That we're trying to steal each other's man
But you can be damn sure she'll try to steal 'em both
If ever she got the chance
[Chorus]
You better beware of the dog that bring the bone
She's only trying to break up your home
You better beware of the dog that bring the bone
She's only trying to break up your home
[Verse 5]
You know she'll try find a way to pick your mind
To put you on the gossip train
And she'll use what you say to bring about hate
Between you Shelly, Barbara, and Jane
[Chorus]
You better beware of the dog that bring the bone
She's only trying to break up your home
You better beware of the dog that bring the bone
She's only trying to break up your home
[Outro]
(You better) Beware, beware
(You better) Beware, beware
(You better) Beware, beware
(You better) Beware, yeah, beware
(You better beware) Beware
