Chorus

Ohhh... yeah
I should have stopped, looked and listened before I proceeded
But caution I threw to the wind
Many've been placed in my life to help lead me and guide me
But I didn't want to talk to them
So I ignored their advice and I tried to disguise pain from you and all the things you did
The wrong road was chosen my heart has been broken
Cause I didn't want to hear them
Shoulda' said what I didn't say
Shoulda' went right but I went left that day
Shoulda' prayed but instead I strayed
Shoulda' gone a different way
Shoulda' listened to my mother
When she said that you were no good for me
Shoulda' listened to my pastors
When they told me turn around and leave you be
Shoulda' listened to my sisters
When they said that I was too blind to see
But I see the light somehow
And I vow to listen now
I had the chance to advance and it seemed like the best
Opportunity that I could get
I didn't bother to see if my people agreed
Maybe I knew what they would say and yet
I didn't control it I kept going for it
When I shoulda' known it wasn't in God's plan
Had to let go, had I listened before
I would've said no from the door
Shoulda' said what I didn't say
Shoulda' went right but I went left that day
Shoulda' stayed but instead I strayed
Shoulda' gone a different way
Shoulda' listened to my mother
When she said that you were no good for me
Shoulda' listened to my pastors
When they told me turn around and leave you be
Shoulda' listened to my sisters
When they said that I was too blind to see
But I see the light somehow
And I vow to listen now
Shoulda' listened to my mother
When she said that you were no good for me
Shoulda' listened to my pastors
When they told me turn around and leave you be
Shoulda' listened to my sisters
When they said that I was too blind to see
But I see the light somehow
And I vow to listen now
Shoulda' listened I know I shoulda' listened
But I know that I vow to listen now
Shoulda' listened I know I shoulda' listened
But you don't have to tell me twice I'm going to listen now
Shoulda' listened if only I had listened
But I've learned my lesson now
I'm gonna listen now
Shoulda' listened cause I just can't be missing
All the things God has for me
Repeat till end
