Got an ex-old man and an ex-best girlfriend Took his ring off my finger, gave him back his last name So don't judge me, I'm doing the best I can Got a damn good reason for this drink in my hand Got an ex-old man and an ex-best girlfriend No I didn't see it coming, she was sly as can be I was crying on her shoulder, he was cheating on me She never let on that it was her stealing his love But I wised up I got an ex-old man and an ex-best girlfriend Good riddance to ‘em both, I really don't need them I was working two jobs, they were fooling around Crossed my mind to put ‘em six feet in the ground I got an ex-old man and an ex-best girlfriend Trust may be something that I live without It's gonna take a while to remove my doubt But everyone around you at some point will let you down That's how I feel now I got an ex-old man and an ex-best girlfriend I got an ex-old man and an ex-best girlfriend Now I heard it through the grapevine, he's tired of her Guess they're finally getting what they deserve The last time I saw him he had the nerve to hit on me How sleazy can you be? I got an ex-old man and an ex-best girlfriend Took his ring off my finger, gave him back his last name So don't judge me, I'm doing the best I can I've got a damn good reason for this drink in my hand I got an ex-old man and an ex-best girlfriend I got an ex-old man and an ex-best girlfriend
