How Many Times
[Verse 1]
If you were hurt like I was before
Ladies, go turn up your radio
Cause I’m gonna sing this one for us, yeah
See, they complain about our attitude
Talk about the things we do
To me, it seems so obvious
They like it, they keep coming, keep coming back
For more, yeah
You’re always so quick to up and criticize
I got my flaws and yes, I realize
[Pre-Chorus]
I've become so hard to deal with
'Cause this point of my heart is so tired
[Chorus]
How many times, how many times, how many times?
Ooh, I caught you on the phone with her
How many times, how many times, how many times
Did I take you back and you broke my heart?
Oh, this song know how I feel
You betrayed my love
And the moral of the story is
How many times?
How many times?
[Verse 2]
Our sister, our sister Mary (real love)
She used to tell us 'bout this in the 90's
I used to say that'll never be
No, never, never me
But it's 2011 and I feel I can't get any lower
Taking out my anger on any and everybody that comes around me
[Pre-Chorus]
I've become so hard to deal with
Cause this part of my heart is so tired
[Chorus]
How many times, how many times, how many times?
Ooh, I caught you on the phone with her
How many times, how many times, how many times
Did I take you back and you broke my heart?
Oh, this song know how I feel
You betrayed my love
And the moral of the story is
How many times?
How many times?
[Bridge]
How many times
Must I cry here? (I'm so tired of crying)
And how many times
Should my son see my tears? (Only 7 years old)
How many of y'all goin' through the same thing (Oh)
I've become so hard to deal with
'Cause this part of my heart is so tired
I'm so tired
[Chorus]
How many times, how many times, how many times?
Ooh, I caught you on the phone with her
How many times, how many times, how many times
Did I take you back and you broke my heart?
Oh, this song know how I feel
You betrayed my love
And the moral of the story is
How many times?
How many times?
[Outro]
How many times do I gotta get hurt to know
It ain't never gonna get no better?
How many times, ladies, have you been hurt
And you know in your heart it won't get no better?
You, you
This one's for you
You, you
This one's for you
