Woo hoo! Baby, where've you been? It's half past ten. Oh, look you're late again. Busy day, got a lot on your mind? You should hear about mine. A tall drink of water and a pretty little thing Were kissing on corner in the pouring rain. Turned my head to get a better view Oh lord, help me it was you. Didn't love me I ain't no fool Didn't love me No, no, no, no. Love, love you let me down Making this too easy Love, love you let me down Think you should be leaving Love, love you let me down Let me down No you wont string me along You better be moving on Giddy on up Giddy on out (oh I ain't finished yet sit back down.) Been acting pretty strange, didn't want to talk. Mm, there's a pep in your walk Smiling a lot when you look at your phone There's a change in your tone. Ive been through your pockets and smelled your shirts I don't wear bath and body works Should've seen the signs you were sneakin' around She must be the number on the napkin I found Didn't love me I ain't no fool Didn't love me No, no, no, no. Love, love you let me down Making this too easy Love, love you let me down Think you should be leaving Love, love you let me down Let me down Ooh you wont string me along You better be moving on Giddy on up Giddy on out Oh let me tell you I guess you could say that I was blind I was blinded by my love I did everything for you And now push has come to shove So lets call the spade to spade Was it worth the price you paid? Now I am done, I'm the lucky one And you can sleep in the bed you made. Didn't love me I ain't no fool Didn't love me No, no, no, no. Love, love you let me down Making this too easy Love, love you let me down Think you should be leaving Love, love you let me down Let me down Ooh you wont string me along Love, love you let me down Making this too easy Love, love you let me down Think you should be leaving Love, love you let me down Let me down Ooh you wont string me along You better be moving on Giddy on up Giddy on out
