Gave Up On You

I GAVE UP ON YOU BABY
A LONG TIME AGO
I GAVE UP ON YOU BABY
AND I GAVE UP REAL SLOW
I THOUGHT I COULD DO NO BETTER
THAT'S HOW FAR YOU BROKE ME DOWN OH BABY YEAH
MY HOUSE WAS YOUR CASTLE GIRL
HOW LET YOU WEAR MY CROWN

LIKE A BLADE TO THE STONE
YOU MADE ME SHARP
I CUT ALL THE STRINGS
THAT YOU HAD ON MY HEART
YOU HAD ME DOING WRONG FOR YOU
YOU HAD ME LYING TO MY KIN STONE COLD BABY
I FOUND OUT A LONG TIME AGO
THERE WAS NO BEAUTY BELOW YOUR SKIN

I GAVE UP ON YOU BABY
I NEVER LOOKED BACK
I GAVE UP ON YOU BABY
AND I LEFT WITH MY SACK
UP UNTIL NOW WOMAN
I THOUGHT YOU WERE GONE FOR GOOD AND IT WAS UNDERSTOOD
YOU GOT A LONG **** CHAIN ON MY HEART
AND HARD **** CHAIN ON MY WOOD YES YOU DO

WHY YOU GOT TO COME BACK IN MY LIFE
DON'T YOU KNOW I GOT TWO LITTLE CHILDREN AND A LOVING WIFE
I WAITED OH I WAITED I WAITED FOR YOU BABY
BUT THERE WAS NO DAMN WAY IN THIS WORLD WOMAN YOU WOULD EVER BE TRUE
GAVE UP ON YOU BABY
I GAVE UP ON YOU
I GAVE UP ON YOU BABY
HA I GAVE UP ON YOU
I GAVE UP ON YOU BABY
BABY BABY BABY BABY BABY BABY
AH **** UH HUH
