(Hey!) Well, I got some Coke in my bourbon Surfin' the room like Swazye No, I ain't drunk, I'm amazing Yeah, I got that laid way, way back, back in my swagger Xfactor, feeling no pain I'm at the top of my game Darlin' you can't crash my party with your "sorry's" and "what are we's?" Don't start rainin' on my Mardi Gras parade for a minute I ain't even fixin' to listen to your guilt trippin' You're forgettin', girl you made your bed and didn't want me in it (hey!) Woah girl, simmer on down a notch Ain't nobody making you watch me get my "forget you" on No girl, can't touch my "good as gold" I know it's difficult to see me on a roll (hey!) But hey, you broke up with me Yeah, what can I say babe, you broke up with me Guess you don't know what you want 'Til you see I'm movin' on Makin' lonely look like freedom Baby, don't even act like I'm doing something wrong If my song comes on and I get lost on that dance floor In somebody's arms that aren't yours You can't crash my party with your "sorry's" and "what are we's?" Don't be rainin' on my Mardi Gras parade for a minute I ain't even fixin' to listen to your guilt trippin' You're forgettin' girl you made your bed and didn't want me in it (hey!) Woah girl, simmer on down a notch Ain't nobody making you watch me get my "forget you" on No girl, can't touch my "good as gold" I know it's difficult to see me on a roll (hey!) But hey, you broke up with me Yeah, what can I say babe, you broke up with me For real babe, ain't tryin' rub it your face I'm just breakin' off a little cold hard truth It is what it is girl, you did what you did girl I'm just doin' what a bachelor do Darlin', you can't crash my party with your "sorry's" and "what are we's?" Don't be rainin' on my Mardi Gras parade for a minute (quit it!) I ain't even fixin' to listen to your guilt trippin' You're forgettin', girl you made your bed and didn't want me in it (hey!) Woah girl, simmer on down a notch Ain't nobody making you watch me get my "forget you" on No girl, can't touch my "good as gold" I know it's difficult to see me on a roll But hey, you broke up with me Yeah, what can I say babe, you broke up with me (hey!)
