Boy you make it hard, you make it hard to leave
You make it hard
(You're no good for me)
Every day, every night
You were out with your boys getting high
While I worked hard to pay the rent
And my girls said I should lose you
But I stuck with you

What I gave you took
Nothing came in return
But I, I kept on giving, baby
'Cause the sex was so good
And your talk was so smooth
That I, I guess I bought it, baby
Now I finally see, you were using me
And I'm taking my money, my money, my money back
You're down on your knees, begging me not to leave
But I'm taking my money, my money, my money back
I'm saying ooh-ooh-ooh and aah-aah-aah
You know I really loved you boy
Ooh-ooh-ooh and aah-aah-aah
What a waste of a man so fine
When I found out about all your fooling around
When I discovered all your sneaky ways
Well I, I had to cry about it
Well, I, I had to shed some tears about it
When you said you're sorry, and you loved me only
I should have left you right there
I should have walked away right then
Now I finally see, you were using me
Now I finally understand, you were playing me
And I'm taking my money, my money, my money back
You're down on your knees, begging me not to leave
But I'm taking my money, my money, my money back
I'm saying ooh-ooh-ooh and aah-aah-aah
You know I really loved you boy
Ooh-ooh-ooh and aah-aah-aah
What a waste of a man so fine
Ooh-ooh-ooh and aah-aah-aah
Give me back my heart
Give me back my time
Ooh-ooh-ooh and aah-aah-aah
What a waste of a woman so fine
Now I finally see, you were using me
And I'm taking my money, my money, my money back
You're down on your knees, begging me not to leave
But I'm taking my money, my money, my money back
I'm saying ooh-ooh-ooh and aah-aah-aah
Give me back my heart
Give me back my time
Ooh-ooh-ooh and aah-aah-aah
What a waste of a woman so fine
Ooh-ooh-ooh and aah-aah-aah
Give me back my heart
Give me back my time
Ooh-ooh-ooh and aah-aah-aah
What a waste of a woman so fine
