When my baby said she loved me
Why did I just not care?
When she damn well got up and left me
Why didn't I keep her here?
Well I never had the heart to leave her
Something else just kept me there

Then came Awol with the lovelies
Me'n Awol go way back when
Back before I knew my lady
Me and Awol were the best of friends
He said that when we get in the swing of things
We'll be looking at some perfect "10's"

Well I used to love a lady
But I don't know what went wrong!
Whoa no!

I used to love that lady
But I don't know what went wrong
Whoa, no!

And I never had the heart to leave her
But she left me on her own
