I Told You I Was Mean Songtext
von Elle King

I lied to you
I never cried for you
Swear that I tried to
But I have better things to do

Now you′re on the road
With your painful load
And the words I spoke
Left your big heart broke, aye

And though you still bother
Because love is for the poor
So I left you knocking
Outside my front door

You knew what this was
I don't want you anymore
I warned you before
I warned you before
That I could′ve sworn, I told you I was mean


You were a sweet old thing
And I was lonely, so I let you hold me
For a limited time
Only you see
You're nothing to me

'Cause I′ll always be
A bad, bad seed and yeah
And though you still bother
Because love is for the poor

So I left you knocking outside my front door
You knew what this was
I don′t want you anymore

I warned you before
I warned you before
Well I could've sworn, I told you I was mean

Dum di dah, dum, dum
I′m just a mean ol' thing
Dum di dah, dum, dum

Ain′t no use to bother
Because love is for the poor
So cut out your knockin'
′Cause I will never come, I will never come to the door

You knew just what this was
And I don't want you forevermore


I warned you before, hey baby
I warned you before, oh honey
Well I could've sworn
I told you I was mean

Dum di dah, dum, dum
I′m just a mean ol′ thing
Dum di dah, dum, dum
