Woke up in the morning, you were not there All I seen was an imprint of your head In my pillow, weeping willow Why'd I treat you so bad I shoulda known one day that you'd be gone You shoulda known one day that I'd be gone You shoulda known one day that we'd be
Why did you have to be this way Baby all you had to say Was that you were sick and tired of the man I began to be But you planned a great escape Bright and early before I wake We both knew we had to break You coulda chose a better way
Woke up in the morning, you were not there All I seen was an imprint of your head In my pillow, weeping willow Why'd I treat you so bad I shoulda known one day that you'd be gone You shoulda known one day that I'd be gone You shoulda known one day that we'd be
It was cold the way you left Still the pain is in my chest Because in my heart I felt you shoulda came and talked to me If you put away your pride And look deep into my eyes It woulda been to your surprise That I got up to apologize But you were gone
Woke up in the morning, you were not there All I seen was an imprint of your head In my pillow, weeping willow Why'd I treat you so bad I shoulda known one day that you'd be gone You shoulda known one day that I'd be gone You shoulda known one day that we'd be
Woke up in the morning, you were not there All I seen was an imprint of your head In my pillow, weeping willow Why'd I treat you so bad I shoulda known one day that you'd be gone You shoulda known one day that I'd be gone You shoulda known one day that we'd be
Oh I thought we had forever, now it's gone It's time to carry on I thought that you made me happy But it's this thing that's come between us girl At one time you were my world Now it seems it's gone away, gone away
Woke up in the morning, you were not there All I seen was an imprint of your head In my pillow, weeping willow Why'd I treat you so bad I shoulda known one day that you'd be gone You shoulda known one day that I'd be gone You shoulda known one day that we'd be

I can remember the day I left you Wasn't that long ago I said some things I shouldn'ta said And I'm sorry But you know? Ever since that day I've vowed to myself To get you 'round again Just listen
Sitting here wondering what went wrong Why did you have to leave me Cuz I don't really wanna go on Because I'd rather plead and beg you to stay Cuz I need you woman, every single day
It's a cold cold cold world Living here without you in my life Although I try to get along, but I can't Cuz I need you to be here, why oh why
It's a cold cold cold world Living here without you in my life Although I try to get along, but I can't Cuz I need you to be here, why oh why
Baby love could you tell me what's on your heart Because I really wonder if we can make a brand new start Cuz I'd rather die then live without your smile Come on back home, baby I been missing you for a while
It's a cold cold cold world Living here without you in my life Although I try to get along, but I can't Cuz I need you to be here, why oh why

But I'm sayin' Here I am, say lying and praying That I'm laying something hot Cuz baby, it's cold outside And even when it's not, it still is
Baby shorties ask me what the deal is Not listenin' to they mom and them Cuz they all know what they talkin' 'bout, like Willis I say what shorty desire, be what real is And when I first came to her I was still wet behind the ears So I was just the lame to her I heard older cats lay claim to her And say they speak game to her But they never put a name to her
So I called her desire Like so many street cars that I did for For her promises, little brothers, there bids for And little sisters sacrifice they head for Even street-wise vets wind up dead for See she will attempt to straight pimp you You'll scream "Fuck the world" But soon go them too
She proclaim that my esteem was way off the rack I had style but it was the Caddy I lack The gangsta white walls and the diamond in the back I asked her was she white or black She said neither one, or somewhere in between Plus she was mean and had been seen In places where cats got big faces Has made some trade in freestyles for freebases
I knew that my best friend was meddling But I continued peddling But I got arrested before I got rich Trying to make some scratch Like trigger fingers that itch She told me she call me an ambulance If I ever called her a bitch
(I'm so glad) Alright, I tried to be online (Trouble don't last) But the matrix had a major glitch (Always) She said my style could never switch I was her nigger for life (Always) She said her peeps Probably couldn't pronounce Malik Yusef But they could pronounce us man and wife (I'm so glad) So the script I attempted to flip, flop (Trouble don't last) Flip floppin' to backwards, know (Always) In the backseats
I'm working hard 50 hours a week paying for the car And the house we had built on the boulevard And as soon as you get home you wanna start With something negative Besides phsyical harm, what do you give And you make lots of noise for someone who sits At home all day watching One Life To Live
You ain't right, no, no I thought you loved me You ain't right, no, no
We're suppose to be a team At least you could do things like cook and clean But I ask you what's up, you start looking mean Smackin' your lips like you're still a teenager And I'm sick of this, but I end up in this perdicament I would rather go somewhere and pitch a tent Then to stay here with you acting ignorant
You ain't right, no, no I thought you loved me You ain't right, no, no
You shouldn't take for granted my love Cuz one day it could be gone Taking the best of me and my love I gave to you and you gave me none
You ain't right, no, no I thought you loved me You ain't right, no, no
Oh, lady would you lay Lady would you lay I'll rub them all around
Lady, lay your body Let me rub the lonely Places all away Lady, lay your body Let me rub the lonely I wanna rub your loneliness away
Last night I think I fell in love with you It was from a window watching you around my way I was too shy to even call to you So I wrote some words that made it easier to say Lady would you lay
Lady, lay your body Let me rub the lonely Places all away Lady, lay your body Let me rub the lonely I wanna rub your loneliness away
