I can tell that you've been hurt
By that look on your face, girl
Some guy brought safety to your happy world
You need love but you're afraid that if you give in
Someone else will come along
And sock it to you again

One bad apple don't spoil the whole bunch girl
Ooh, give it one more try before you give up on love
One bad apple don't spoil the whole bunch girl
Ooh, I don't care what they say I care what you've heard

I could make you happy and satisfy you too
But how can I when you won't give me a chance to prove my love to you
Won't you give me just one little chance
I give you my guarantee that you won't be hurt again

One bad apple don't spoil the whole bunch girl
Ooh, give it one more try before you give up on love
One bad apple don't spoil the whole bunch girl
Ooh, I don't care what they say I care what you've heard

I've been noticing you baby for a long, long time
I'm not ashamed to tell the world that you really messed up my world
Girl, to me you're like a dream come true
I would rather hurt myself than to ever hurt you

One bad apple don't spoil the whole bunch girl
Ooh, give it one more try before you give up on love
One bad apple don't spoil the whole bunch girl
Ooh, I don't care what they say I care what you've heard
