  • hit dog's gonna holler, and a ghost is gonna moan
    that was just another wasted message on my phone
    who conjured you, up from the dead
    and what made you think you could get back into my bed

    it was good when it was good, it was done when it was done
    why don't you go and find a love of your own
    you're comin' round shakin' up the dust, tryna pick old bones
    you ain't got the sense to leave well enough alone

    you know the curve of my hip like the back of your hand
    you so sure you got this boy but you don't understand
    i might be tempted but i ain't a fool
    boy i'd never throw away my sweet thing over you

    don'tcha come around my door, my door
    i know what you're lookin' for, lookin' for
    got no time, no more, no more
    ain't got nothin' here that's yours
    gotta better man at home, at home,
    than you've ever been, i know, you know
    ain't going down, so low, so low
    take your devilish smile and go Publisher: RISSI PALMER-STYPMANN
