[Intro]
It turns out
It turns out
It turns out
It turns out
It turns out
It turns out

[Verse 1]
Friday night, you and your boys went out to eat, oh
Then they hung out
But you came home around three
If six of y'all went out, ah
Then four of you were really cheap, yeah
'Cause only two of you had dinner
I found your credit card receipt

[Chorus]
It's not right, but it's okay
I'm gonna make it anyway
Pack your bags, up and leave
Don't you dare come runnin' back to me
It's not right, but it's okay
I'm gonna make it anyway
Close the door behind you, leave your key
I'd rather be alone than unhappy, yeah (Ah)
[Verse 2]
I'm packing bags so you can leave town for a week
Yes, I am
The phone rings, and then you look at me
Why'd you turn and look at me?
You said it was one of your friends, down on 54th Street, boy
So why did 213 show up on your Caller I.D.? Oh

[Chorus]
It's not right, but it's okay
I'm gonna make it anyway
Pack your bags, up and leave
Don't you dare come runnin' back to me
It's not right, but it's okay
I'm gonna make it anyway
Close the door behind you, leave your key
I'd rather be alone than unhappy, yeah
It's not right, but it's okay
I'm gonna make it anyway
Pack your bags, up and leave
Don't you dare come runnin' back to me
It's not right, but it's okay
I'm gonna make it anyway
Close the door behind you, leave your key
I'd rather be alone than unhappy, yeah
[Breakdown]
I've been through all of this before
I've been through all this before
So how could you think
Don't think about it, don't think about it
That I would stand around and take some more?
Get gone, get gone
Things are gonna change
Things are gonna change, baby
'Cause I won't be a fool anymore
You don't stand no chance, boy
That's why you have to leave
I said yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
So don't turn around to see my face
Don't you turn around
There's no more tears left here for you to see

[Verse 3]
Was it really worth you going out like that? (Tell me, boy)
See, I'm movin' on
And I refuse to turn back, yeah
See, all of this time
I thought I had somebody down for Whitney
It turns out, you were making a fool of me, oh

[Chorus]
It's not right, but it's okay (Sho 'nuff okay, ha)
I'm gonna make it anyway (Make it anyway)
Pack your bags, up and leave (Pack your bags, get out and leave)
Don't you dare come runnin' back to me (Don't you dare, back to me, boy)
It's not right, but it's okay (It's not right, so okay)
I'm gonna make it anyway (I'm gonna, I'm gonna, ah)
Close the door behind you, leave your key (Close the door, and leave your key)
I'd rather be alone than unhappy (I'd rather be alone than unhappy, oh)
It's not right, but it's okay
I'm gonna make it anyway
Pack your bags, up and leave
Don't you dare come runnin' back to me
It's not right, but it's okay
I'm gonna make it anyway
Close the door behind you, leave your key
I'd rather be alone than unhappy, yeah
[Outro]
Was it really worth you going out like that?
