Lyrics
Verse 1:
You're surprised I went out and found a new crew
Did you think I'd sit and sulk at home? Boy, get a clue
'Cuz when my feet start tappin', they're enjoyin' the view
You had your chance and you blew it, there ain't much you can do. Boy,
Chorus:
What would you have me do?
You're walkin' 'round all self-righteous, but try wearin' my shoes
I gave up on gettin' through to you, so
Whaaaat would you have me do?
Verse 2:
I know it's uncomfortable for you to leave home
But it's your turn. I spent years flyin' alone
Said, "Tip the scales back to my side. I'm not comin' to you."
And if that hurts, then you know I finally got to your truth. Hey,
Chorus
Bridge:
Mmhmm hmmm mmm
Mmhmm hmmm hmmm
Mmhmm hmmm mmm
Mmhmm hmmm mmm
Chorus
