The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Verse 1:

Been around the world ladies come and go

But still I told myself that

you weren't one of those

Hook:

That's what I get for being alive

I'm not upset or headed goodbye

Chorus:

Tried to love you tried to please you

Never made a difference I see

You shoulda known better

I feel so dumb

Made you the one

Never made a difference I see

You shoulda known better

Verse 2:

Such a perfect love

Or so I thought it was

But you were loving you

Girl instead of loving us

Hook

That's what I get for being alive

I'm not upset or headed goodbye

Bridge:

Girl you really don't believe

how much I love you

And you really don't believe hoe much I care

So I guess I made a fool out of myself

But believe me

It won't happen again

(C.B.)

You're part of me son don't let me jump in Case

And do the shit I don't know what

you're talkin bout dog

Stopped this young thing from eating pork

Now she on the phone hollerin

fuck you and child support

Talkin that I ain't got no cream

And the kids don't get it

cause soon as she get she gone

spend it

And that's what get just for loving her more

Got me feelin like a stranger

when I walk in the door

Looking at me like its my fault

With devious thoughts in

the back of her wishing the

kid fall off

And get laid off, or get

sprayed off and lose my face

But I refuse like a plane I'ma take off

And lose my career now that I'm

alone I think without fear
