I used to keep my phone right next to me 
I used to drink till I drank myself to sleep 
I used to say “sorry man, I think I’ll stay at home”
But now I don’t

I used to lean on the green to self-medicate
I used to talk myself out of that second date
I used to only wanna hear sad country songs
But now I don’t

Girl I can’t lie, it’s been a hell of a breakup 
You did a number on my pride baby, straight up
I used to sit around thinking we’d make up
But now I don’t
I took a pretty good beatin’ to bounce back 
Now I’m back on my feet laughing at the fact
That I ever used to wish I could get you back 
’Cause now I don’t
Now I don’t

I used to try to find a pedestal to put you on 
I used to tell my mama that she pegged you wrong
I thought your sex was the best that I’d ever known 
But now I don’t

Girl I can’t lie, it’s been a hell of a breakup 
You did a number on my pride baby, straight up
I used to sit around thinking we’d make up
But now I don’t
I took a pretty good beatin’ to bounce back 
Now I’m back on my feet laughing at the fact
That I ever used to wish I could get you back 
’Cause now I don’t

Yeah, I can’t believe that you called after all this time that’s passed
Oh, and now you’re saying you still love me but girl, I can’t say it back 
Girl ’Cause now I don’t
Now I don’t 

Girl I can’t lie, it’s been a hell of a breakup 
You did a number on my pride baby, straight up
I used to sit around thinking we’d make up
But now I don’t
I took a pretty good beatin’ to bounce back 
Now I’m back on my feet laughing at the fact
That I ever used to wish I could get you back 
’Cause now I don’t
Now I don’t
Now I don’t
Now I don’t
That’s right, now I don’t
Now I don’t
