Monica - U Should've Known Better lyrics

Oh, oh Lalalalala I didn't ask to go with you to Mexico I really didn't need the shopping spree In LA or Melrose Boy, if you didn't know it, well now you know I didn't need the furs or the j**elry Because material things It don't mean much to me And ever since you've been gone I've been holding us down, on my own And no I never ever cheated I never ever lied So you can stop askin' Askin' me why Why I never left you And why I kept it real And why I'm still with you You should've known better Than to think I would leave You should've known better Than to doubt me (me) It don't matter if you're up Matter if you're down Either way, I'm gonna be around You should've known that I would stay by your side Should've known your girl Was gonna ride or die And it just don't matter If you're rich or poor Out or in Doin' 5 to 10 You should've known better What makes you think That I would forget about ya Think about it Who comes to see ya Every Saturday and Monday I was on that receiver It's me (me) Your girl (girl) Your life (life) Your world (world) My family and friends They just don't understand They say, I should leave you alone But I say, that they all should just leave us alone Don't you get it I never ever cheated I never ever lied So you can stop askin' Askin' me why Why I never left you And why I kept it real And why I'm still with you You should've known better Than to think I would leave You should've known better Than to doubt me It don't matter if you're up Matter if you're down Either way, I'm gonna be around You should've known that I would stay by your side Should've known your girl Was gonna ride or die And it just don't matter If you're rich or poor Out or in Doin' 5 to 10 You should've known better (musical interlude) You should've known better Than to think I would leave You should've known better Than to doubt me It don't matter if you're up Matter if you're down Either way, I'm gonna be around You should've known that I would stay by your side Should've known your girl Was gonna ride or die And it just don't matter If you're rich or poor Out or in Doin' 5 to 10 You should've known better
