Treat Her Like a Lady Lyrics

Treat her like a lady
Hoo
Ooh, yeah, baby
Whoa, mmm
Now I'm the kinda guy who don't believe
That chivalry is dead, no
'Cause I believe a woman should be treated
With the utmost respect, mmm
Don't be afraid, don't turn and walk away
I wanna get to know ya, well
Don't be ashamed, don't say that love's to blame
Just come and look me over
(You'll find a heart)
You'll find a heart that you've always been lookin' for
How could anybody ask for much more, woah hoo
(More, more, more)
Now I like openin' doors
Pickin' up her hanky off the floor

(Yeah, yeah)
Treat her like a lady
(Treat her like lady)
Light her cigarette if she smokes
Even
(Help her with her coat)
Well, treat her like a lady
(Treat her like lady)
In this world of liberation
It's so easy to forget, mmm
That it's so nice to have a man around
To lend a helping hand, you can bet, bet you can, baby
When I was young, my mama used to say, "Boy
A woman's like a flower with love on her you shower"
Ever since that day, her words never went away
I always will remember to treat my baby tender
(You'll find a heart)
You'll find a heart that you've always been lookin' for
How could anybody ask for much more, whoa
(More, more, more)
Now I like openin' doors
Pickin' up her hanky off the floor
(Yeah, yeah)
Treat her like a lady
(Treat her like lady)
She's a bad son-of-a-gun
I'm her lovin' Don Juan
Treat her like a lady
(Treat her like lady)
Hoo, whoa
Whoa, baby
Every day, ever way
Hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
(You'll find a heart)
You'll find a heart that you've always been lookin' for
How could anybody ask for much more, whoa
(More, more, more)
Now I like openin' doors
Pickin' up her hanky off the floor
(Yeah, yeah)
Treat her like a lady
(Treat her like lady)
Light her cigarette if she smokes, even
(Help her with her coat)
Help her out
Treat her like a lady
(Treat her like lady)
Compliment her on her hair
Even help her with her chair
Treat her like a lady
(Treat her like lady)
Now boy, you should remember
To be a gentleman
Treat her like a lady, hoo
(You better)
Treat her like
(Well)
Treat her like
(Ho)
Treat her like a lady
(Treat her like a lady)
Treat her like
Treat her like
(Hey)
Treat her like a lady
(Treat her like a lady)
Treat her like
Treat her like
(Well)
Treat her like a lady
(Treat her like a lady)
Treat her like
Treat her like
(Ooh)
Treat her like a lady

Singing themselves into soul music history with their huge hits "Too Late To Turn Back Now" and "Treat Her Like A Lady", they originally came out of sunny Dania Beach, Florida. Featuring brothers Edward (who wrote most of their songs) and Carter with sisters Billie Jo and Rose Cornelius, the soulful pop group started as an idea when they sung in church. She and her brothers formed "Cornelius Brothers & Sister Rose" in 1969. Sister Rose already had experience playing on the road starting at age 14 with "Freddie Scott & The High Steppers", later also being in a mid-60s Vegas revue called "The Gospel Jazz Singers".

Managed initially by Dionne Warwick's father Speedy Warwick, they soon were recording for United Artists and scored hits from 1971 to 1974 with lushly orchestrated, million seller tunes such as "Treat Her Like a Lady" (1971), "Too Late to Turn Back Now" (1972), "I'm Never Gonna Be Alone Anymore" (1973), and "Don't Ever Be Lonely (A Poor Little Fool Like Me)" (1974). Sadly, though having early successes, their sweet soul sound (viewed by many fans as reminiscent of The Jackson 5 and The Supremes) did not gain much more attention as the decade came to a close. Still, their early hit singles are still heavily requested and frequently played on oldies format stations.

Carter, who died in 1991 at age 43, had changed his name in 1976 to Prince Gideon Israel, after joining a reclusive black supremacist religious religious sect in Miami, whose followers all adopt the name Israel. Sister Rose continued in show biz for a while, working with her husband Garvey playing R&B and reggae tunes around Florida. While the group is no more, their songs still receive considerable airplay.
