I play only loves you when he's playing Girlfriend I hope you listen to what I'm saying
How you think you gonna stop him from betraying Can't teach an old dog new tricks you know
Like a man who's rough around the edges Claiming he's changing a bunch of empty pledges
Can't believe a damn thing he alleges Think twice before you head on down that road
Ladies, you've got to let go Cause he ain't never gonna change
So now it's time to show him I can do Not gonna take his mess no more
He got you waiting at home While he's out in the club all night
Got to let go, got to let go Got you paying all the bills
And you know that it ain't right Got to let go, got to let go
He got baby mama drama all over the town Got to let go, got to let go
Even your friends trying to tell you he's messing around
Got to let go, got to let go
Go home, go home Let go, ladies, go home
They promised you the stars in the beginning It takes a while for you to find out that
he's swindlin' Dependin' on your money and he's clingin'
You live and learn only if you recognize You stick with him because you think he needs you
It's almost like you don't see the way he treats you
Cause even talking won't leave him cause you're too weak to
So all that I can give is this advice
Ladies, you've got to let go Cause he ain't never gonna change
So now it's time to show him a good time Cause I'm gonna take his mess no more
He got you waiting at home while he's out in the club all night
Got to let go, got to let go Got you paying all the bills
And you know that it ain't right Got to let go, got to let go
He got baby mama drama all over the town Got to let go, got to let go
Even your friends trying to tell you he's messing around
Got to let go, got to let go
Let go, let go, let go Let him go, ladies
And don't think I haven't been through it all myself
All right, hope in that blind day He becomes someone else
Not gonna take his mess no more
He got you waiting at home while he's out in the club all night
Got to let go, got to let go Got you paying all the bills
And you know that it ain't right Got to let go, got to let go
If he got baby mama drama all over the town You gotta say no no
Even your friends trying to tell you he's messing around
Got to let go, got to let go He be pumping on weed first thing in the morning
Got to let go, got to let go While he's still sitting in the same spot when you get home
Got to let go, got to let go Whole world's against him but it's never his fault
Got to let go, got to let go You're trying to break it down but he don't hear you at all
Got to let go, got to let go
Let him go, let him go
You know the woman let him go
What you gotta do to let him go
