Shoulda Known Better

I'm the one that made you somethin' special (special)
You were just a rebel when I met you, baby
I'm the reason you're alive and breathing (breathing)
Count to ten before you try to say shit, baby

I gave you life when you couldn't get by
And you got you somebody else at night

Should've known better when my momma didn't like you
Should've known you could never love someone
Should've known better than to let somebody like you
Be the reason I don't wanna fall in love
Time for you, cried over you
And I ain't wastin' all my life on you
Should've known better than to love somebody like you
Love somebody like you, somebody

Late night, driving down upon the west side (west side)
Steal your daddy's Ford and gettin' high on the beach
I bet you be missin' seventeen me
Stress you with my world, like it was nothin', baby

I gave you life when you couldn't get by
And you got you somebody else at night

Should've known better when my momma didn't like you
Should've known you could never love someone
Should've known better than to let somebody like you
Be the reason I don't wanna fall in love
Time fully out, cried over you
And I ain't wasting all my life on you (ain't wasting all my life on you)
Should've known better than to love somebody like you (you)
Love somebody like you, somebody

Oh, like you
Guess I should've known better than to love somebody like you
Love somebody like you, somebody

I gave you life when you couldn't get by
And you got you somebody else at night

Should've known better when my momma didn't like you
I know what you're doing when you call me up
Should've known better than to let somebody like you
Be the reason I don't wanna fall in love

Should've known better when my momma didn't like you
Should've known you could never love someone (you could never love someone)
Should've known better than to let somebody like you
Be the reason I don't wanna fall in love (I don't wanna fall in love)
Time fully out (ayy), cried over you (ayy)
And I ain't wasting all my life on you (I ain't wasting all my life)
Should've known better than to love somebody like you (ayy)
Love somebody like you, somebody like you

Oh, like you
Guess I should've known better than to love somebody like you
Love somebody like you (should've known better than)
Somebody (to love somebody like you)
