[Verse 1]
The mid-twAenty joys arDound a heart that's black and blue
The tattooed loAve boys I tDore my knees up getting to you
Cause I neAeded to fDind out what the thing was for bAeen reading
But mDan the time came to expFlore
[Chorus]
I went apGewire
'Cause I thFought
Like I'd lGike it
Little teFase
But I didn't mGean it
But you mFess with the goods doll
Honey you gotta pGay

The taAttoos taDrget practice in the hall
WhAile waiting fDor their number to get called out

At chaFnging tires upstairs bGro
I sFhot my mouth off
And you showed me what that hGole was for
