Shake my bones and rattle my grave
He's gone diggin' in the bitch again
And a-back tattoo of a big black snake
Don't go telling me she's just a friend

Hey, little mama, who ya gonna poison now?
Hey, motherf**ker, who ya gonna run to now?

It's been a long time coming
And this house is burning down
Don't know how I ever loved you
I was blind and running
Into what's in front of me
If I only knew...
That happy ever after wasn't you

Hurt me, hate me, throw me down
A whole year I give you me
To lie alone in this red neck town
A better lover did I have to be


Hey, little mama, what you gonna break up now?
Hey, motherf**ker, who ya gonna run to now?

It's been a long time coming
And this house is burning down
Don't know how I ever loved you
I was blind and running
Into what's in front of me
And I never knew
That happy ever after wasn't you
It's been a long time coming
And this house is burning down
Don't know how I ever loved you
And I was blind and running
Into what's in front of me
If I only knew
That happy ever after wasn't you

Happy ever after wasn't you
Happy ever after wasn't you
Happy ever after, oh

Shake my bones and rattle my grave
He's gone diggin' in the bitch again
