I'm the one that made you somethin' special You were just a rebel when I met you, baby I'm the reason you're alive and breathing Count to ten before you try to say shit, baby
I gave you life when you couldn't get by And you got you somebody else at night
Should've known better when my mama didn't like you Should've known you could never love someone Should've known better than to let somebody likе you Be the reason I don't wanna fall in lovе Died for you, cried over you And I ain't wastin' all my life on you Should've known better than to love somebody like you Love somebody like you, somebody
Late night, driving down upon the Westside Steal your daddy's Ford and gettin' high on the beach I bet you be missin' seventeen-me Trust you with my world like it was nothin', baby
I gave you life when you couldn't get by And you got you somebody else at night
Should've known better when my mama didn't like you Should've known you could never love someone Should've known better than to let somebody like you Be the reason I don't wanna fall in love Died for you, cried over you And I ain't wastin' all my life on you Should've known better than to love somebody like you Love somebody like you, somebody
Oh, like you Guess I should've known better Than to love somebody like you Love somebody like you, somebody
I gave you life when you couldn't get by And you got you somebody else at night Should've known better when my mama didn't like you I know what you're doing when you call me up Should've known better than to let somebody like you Be the reason I don't wanna fall in love
