Used to be your baby, used to be your lady

Thought you were the perfect lover

All the harmony went falling out of key, so

Now you gotta find another

Now you're talking crazy saying that you made me

Like I was your Cinderella

You and me are through, though, watch me hit it solo

I'mma do it acapella, yeah

I'mma do it acapella, yeah

Once upon a time, I met the perfect guy

He had that Colgate smile, he had that suit and tie

Mama always said "Get a rich boyfriend

You don't gotta love him, girl, you can pretend"

You bet I totes believed her, yeah, every word she said

Thought he was gluten-free

But all that I got was bread

Mama always said "Nice guys finish last

Beat him at his own game, honey, take the cash"

Ooh, and what a lucky girl you will be

But no, he didn't do jack for me

I want a bean with the beanstalk

And if the magic ain't right, time to walk

Used to be your baby, used to be your lady

Thought you were the perfect lover

All the harmony went falling out of key, so

Now you gotta find another

Now you're talking crazy saying that you made me

Like I was your Cinderella

You and me are through, though, watch me hit it solo

I'mma do it acapella, yeah

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

I'mma do it acapella, yeah

Out on our first date, he took me gourmet

We hit that Olive Garden, my Little Italy

Daddy always said "Let the gentleman pay

Never ever go Dutch at the buffet"

I saw his bad intention, he didn't wanna talk

He put the saucy on it (Oops!) time to check my watch

Daddy always said "Money can't buy class

You don't wanna get stuck taking out trash"

Ooh, yeah I guess it wasn't meant to be

Because he didn't do jack for me

I want a bean with the beanstalk

And if the magic ain't right, time to walk

Used to be your baby, used to be your lady

Thought you were the perfect lover

All the harmony went falling out of key, so

Now you gotta find another

Now you're talking crazy saying that you made me

Like I was your Cinderella

You and me are through, though, watch me hit it solo

I'mma do it acapella, yeah

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

I'mma do it acapella

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Watch me do it in falsetta

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Never mind, bring the beat back

Used to be your baby, used to be your lady

Thought you were the perfect lover

All the harmony went falling out of key, so

Now you gotta find another

Now you're talking crazy saying that you made me

Like I was your Cinderella

You and me are through, though, watch me hit it solo

I'mma do it acapella, yeah

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

I'mma do it acapella, yeah
