lyrics

Shoulda known better
I'm better off now that I know
I keep holdin' on
But I'm gonna have to let you go
You been playin' me for a fool
Told me that you left her
Now I know the truth
I shoulda known better
The summer heat musta gotten to me
I musta lost my mind
I opened up and let you in
You were trouble from start to end

Shoulda known better
I'm better off now that I know
No more weepin' eyes
It's time your ass hit the door
You gave me nothin' but the bitter blues
Said, "I ain't kickin' it with her"
While she's lyin' right next to you
I shoulda known better
Shoulda known better

Now winter winds are blowin' in
Still you can't decide
Guess you won't never be true
So I'm gonna make it easy for you

Shoulda known better
I'm better off now that I know
I keep holdin' on but I'm gonna have to let you go
I should have known better
Shoulda known better
