How many times have you said "that's enough"?
And "well, I'm never doing that. I'll never have him back".
Then you turn up like a bad penny with a man and a gun
Nothing I can do shows you any other way
You tell me you know what you are
And there's nothing left to say
Then you turn up again like a bad penny with a man and a gun
He'll beat you when you're up, he'll knock you to the ground
Well he'll hit you anyway just to keep your spirit down
You let him in your home and you took him to your bed
He told you he'd never hurt you, or you think that's what he said
Some of us love you the way that you are but we know that's not enough
'Cause you turn up again like a bad penny with a man and a gun
He'll beat you when you're up, he'll knock you to the ground
Well he'll hit you anyway just to keep your spirit down
I'm just so afraid of the way that this will run
And that your name might be written on the bullet in his gun.
Some of us love you the way that you are but we know that's not enough
'Cause you turn up again like a bad penny with a man and a gun
Well you turn up again like a bad penny with a man and a gun
