Oh hey hey well well well Do you mind if I tell the truth for a second y'all Maybe I deserve To wonder who calling so damn late For you to say I'm trippin' it's just a homie from upstate (said it's just a homie) Don't he know it's 1:00 in the morning You say it's cool baby it's cool Baby I deserve For you to say he's coming into town ( he wants to see you) And he's just wondering if you and him can hang out I don't like it but I know I gotta trust you It ain't cool cause I know it's true Maybe I deserve For you to go out and find some other guy Maybe I deserve For you to stay out with him all night Maybe I deserve For you to do all the things I did to you Maybe I deserve ( oh yeah) Maybe I deserve Repeat Twice For you to put on a sexy dress For me to ask you Who the hell you trying to impress For you to laugh it off like it ain't nothing I know it's something Maybe just maybe To sit a home and wonder where you are Is he kissing you touching you holding you what Take a drink and help ease my mind I want to be mad after all those times Repeat chorus 2X For me to ask you where you been For you to say I better stop tripping To grab your neck until you let me know For you to run crying, crying out the door To grab my coat and chase you down the street To say it ain't you it's my own insecurity For you to say yes I cheated on you I won't care cause after all I put you through I deserve I desrve yeah yeah yeah To be mistreated sometimes To even be lied to sometimes Maybe you should go cheat on me Maybe I should sit and wait by the phone Cause I paged you about 3 or 4 times Girl I know girl I know I then put you through I then put you through hell And I don't care And I don't care And I deserve See a man can't take another man taking our woman We can't even stand waiting by the phone But we do the same shit
