[Verse 1]
Well, I'm sure it's complicated
And I'm sure your story goes way back
But you're looking desperate lately
And now is not the time to look like that
I don't know if he did it and I won't ask
There's a lot of good women with a lot of bad backs
Your man said something heavy, it already looks bad
Careful what you carry on his behalf
And I know he's thinking of you too
Not the type to snitch and run but
But sometimes they say it's the plain truth
99 problems, uh

[Chorus]
Well, I don't don't need need need to know
But there's a set of my keys left under your door
And If you need a place to sleep tonight
That's what family's for
I don't don't need need need to know
But I'd put on my best fresh little black dress
And o get seen tonight
Work on that alibi of yours

[Verse 2]
I don't mean to be your mother
Got my own kids to raise
And I don't aim to blow your cover
It's your own hell to pay
But the word on the street is a page out of Blake
Your man made money, but he made mistakes
Now the revelation's coming, looks to you for a break
You've always been cunning with those brave escapes
But take a minute now, think this through
Give it a second and a bird's eye view
Think of the moments you've got left to lose
Like how much time are you really down to do?
[Chorus]
Well, I don't don't need need need to know
But there's a set of my keys left under your door
And if you need a place to sleep tonight
Well, that's what family's for
I don't don't need need need to know
But I'd put on my best fresh little black dress
And go get seen tonight
Work on that alibi of yours

[Verse 3]
Now I've seen the way that you count your blessings
Like hatch marks on the wall
And I've seen you coming out of Sunday confession
With a numbered list and all
Now I don't bow my head for supper
I never do kneel besides my bed
But it looks like your afterlife is covered
I hope on Earth you're careful, kid

[Bridge]
'Cause I don't don't don't don't don't don't don't don't don't don't don't don't don't, well
I don't don't don't don't don't don't don't don't don't don't don't don't don't, I don't

[Chorus]
Well, I don't don't need need need to know
But there's a set of my keys left under your door
And if you need a place to sleep tonight
Well, that's what family's for
I don't don't need need need to know
But I'd put on my best fresh little black dress
And go get seen tonight
Work on that alibi of yours
