Used to be your baby, used to be your lady
Thought you were the perfect lover
All the harmony went falling out of key, so
Now you gotta find another
Now youre talking crazy saying that you made me
Like I was your Cinderella
You and me are through, though, watch me hit it solo
Imma do it acapella (x2)
[Verse 1]
Once upon a time, I met the perfect guy
He had that Colgate smile, he had that suit and tie
Mama always said get a rich boyfriend
You dont gotta love em, girl, you can pretend
You better totes believed her, yeah, every word she said
Thought he was gluten-free, but all that I got was bread
Mama always said nice guys finish last
Beat em at his own game, honey, take the cash
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, and what a lucky girl you will be
But no, he didnt do jack for me
I want a bean with the beanstalk
And if the magic aint right, time to walk
[Chorus]
Used to be your baby, used to be lady
Thought you were the perfect lover
All the harmony went falling out of key, so
Now you gotta find another
Now youre talking crazy saying that you made me
Like I was your Cinderella
You and me are through, though, watch me hit it solo
Imma do it acapella, yeah
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh, Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Imma do it acapella, yeah
[Verse 2]
Out on our first date, he took me gourmet
We hit that Olive Garden, my Little Italy
Daddy always said let the gentleman pay
Never ever go Dutch at the buffet
I saw his bad intention, he didnt wanna talk
He put the saucy on it (Oops! ) time to check my wallet
Daddy always said money cant buy class
You dont wanna get stuck taking out trash
[Pre-Chorus - variation]
Ooh, yeah I guess it wasnt meant to be
Because he didnt do jack for me
I want a bean with the beanstalk
And if the magic aint right, time to walk
[Chorus]
Used to be your baby, used to be your lady
Thought you were the perfect lover
All the harmony went falling out of key, so
Now you gotta find another
Now youre talking crazy saying that you made me
Like I was your Cinderella
You and me are through, though, watch me hit it solo
Imma do it acapella, yeah
[Middle 8]
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh, Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Imma do it acapella
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh, Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Watch me do it in falsett-uh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh, Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Never mind, bring the beat back
[Chorus]
Used to be your baby, used to be you lady
Thought you were the perfect lover
All the harmony went falling out of key, so
Now you gotta find another
Now youre talking crazy saying that you made me
Like I was your Cinderella
You and me are through, though, watch me hit it solo
Imma do it acapella, yeah
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh, Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Imma do it acapella, yeah
