I lied to you, I never cried for you
Swear that I tried to, but I had better things to do
Now you're on the road with your painful load
And the words I spoke left your big heart broke
Swear that I tried to, but I had better things to do
Now you're on the road with your painful load
And the words I spoke left your big heart broke
And ain't no use to bother
Because love is for the poor
So I left you knockin'
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 coulda sworn I told you I was mean
Because love is for the poor
So I left you knockin'
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 coulda 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
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 it ain't no use to bother
Because love is for the poor
So I left you knockin'
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 coulda sworn I told you I was mean
Because love is for the poor
So I left you knockin'
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 coulda sworn I told you I was mean
Dum-de-dum, dum-dum
I'm just a mean old thing
Dum-de-dum, dum-dum
I'm just a mean old thing
Dum-de-dum, 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 coulda sworn I told you I was mean
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 coulda sworn I told you I was mean
Dum-de-dum, dum-dum
I'm just a mean old thing
Dum-de-dum, dum-dum
I'm just a mean old thing
Dum-de-dum, dum-dum
