Girl I gave you my heart but you played it like a deck of cards
When you gave it quick to me guess I shoulda known what was up
I gave all my aces up for the sake of love
I wouldn't do to my worst enemy what you did to us.
Girl you played me hard baby when we said
we'd never hurt each other
Girl you played me hard baby when we said
we'd hurt each other never
A spade is a spade girl but what we had's a royal flush
I didn't never plan on a trade girl but your behavior's of disgust
When I gave so much you went and played
When a
Girl you played me hard baby when we said
we'd never hurt each other
Girl you played me hard baby when we said
we hurt each other never
Play me, play me, play me, play me
Play me, play me, play me, play me
...
Girl I gave you my heart but you played it like a deck of cards
When you gave it quick to me guess I shoulda known what was up
I gave all my aces up for the sake of love
I wouldn't do to my worst enemy what you did to us
Play me, play me, play me, play me
Play me, play me, play me, play me
...
(Put it up)
We made a bet and the bet came back on me
(Put it up)
This' your casino, Pacino was just a tease
More than 15, put your bid up, put up your keys, better clean up
Cause what happened down in Vegas
what's supposed to stay with us
Girl you played me hard baby when we said
we'd never hurt each other
Girl you played me hard baby when we said
we hurt each other never
Girl I gave you my heart but you played it like a deck of cards
When you gave it quick to me guess I shoulda known what was up
I gave all my aces up for the sake of love
I wouldn't do to my worst enemy what you did to us
Play too much, you you play too much
Play too much, you you play too much
Girl I gave you my heart but you played it like a deck of cards
When you gave it quick to me guess I shoulda known what was up
I gave all my aces up for the sake of love
I wouldn't do to my worst enemy what you did to us
Girl you played me hard baby when we said
we'd never hurt each other
Girl you played me hard baby when we said
we hurt each other never
