| A player only loves you when he’s playing
|
| Girlfriend I hope you listen to what I’m saying
|
| How you think you gonna stop him from betraying
|
| Can’t teach an old dog new tricks you know
|
| You like a man who’s rough around the edges
|
| Claiming he’s changing, a bunch of empty pledges
|
| Can’t believe a damn thing he alleges
|
| Think twice before you head on down that road
|
| Ladies you got to learn to let go
|
| Cause he ain’t never gonna change no
|
| Now it’s time to show him out the door
|
| Not gonna take his mess nor more
|
| He got you waiting at home while he’s out in club all night
|
| Got to let go, got to let go
|
| Got you paying all the bills and you know that it ain’t right
|
| Got to let go, got to let go
|
| If he got a baby-mama-drama all over the town
|
| Got to let go, got to say no
|
| Even your friends try to tell you he’s messing around
|
| Got to let go, got to let go
|
| They promise you the stars in the beginning
|
| It takes a while for you to find out that he’s swindeling
|
| Depending on your money and he’s clinging
|
| You live and learn only if you recognize
|
| You stick with him because you thinks he needs you
|
| It’s almost like you don’t see the way he treats you
|
| There’s even talk you won’t leave him because you’re too weak to
|
| And don’t think I haven’t been through it all myself
|
| E hoping that one day he’ll become someone else
|
| He be puffing on weed first thing in the morn'
|
| Got to let go, got to let go
|
| Is he still sitting in the same spot when you get home
|
| Got to let go, got to let go
|
| The whole world’s against him, but it’s never his fault
|
| Got to let go, got to say no
|
| You try to break it down, but he don’t hear you at all
|
| Got to let go, got to let go |
