lyrics

Oh girl quit your crying I don't need that shit no more,
and I'm so sick of seeing your face outside my door.
So please don't come around here no more.
I got a new thing now, and oh she loves me more.

Girl you broke my heart, oh girl you broke my bones,
but here you are now cryin' to me over the phone.
Oh, you cant find a better man you're so alone?
Well that's too damn bad I'm happier that you're gone.

Cuz' you're a liar and a cheater and too many kinds of low.
You ask for forgiveness but baby that time is gone.
Go ask some other man too foolish to know,
just take your lonesome self, and leave me alone.

Tattered, abused, and used, you left me no place to go.
And livin' in a gutter ain't no kind of home.
But I'm back on my feet and word on on the street says everyone knows,
how ya' did me no right, and how you torture other men's souls.

So just wallow in your filth and mind your own.
I'm a grown ass man who don't need this shit no more.
Your heart's like a diamond if diamonds were made from coal,
and your dirty little ways have left you alone.
