"i got the boy" lyrics

I don't know a lot about you but I know you took my spot
And I genuinely hope he's what you want
Cause he's a lot different at 28
Than he was at 21

They say one woman's trash is another woman's treasure
But he learned a lot I swear to god he's gonna treat you
Better

I bet he loves you proudly
Bet he understands
I bet he knows his own boundaries and draws them in the sand
So when he lets his feelings show and you don't have to hold his hand
It's cause I got the boy so you got the man
I got the boy and you got the man
And I got the boy

I bet he takes his coffee more bitter
But when he makes a promise he delivers
So you won't break
Like I did knowing that he ran away
Yeah now I know it's from the pain when they say

One woman's trash is another woman's treasure
Doesn't mean she didn't get hurt
But he learned a lot I swear to god he's gonna treat you better

I bet he loves you proudly
Bet he understands
I bet he knows his own boundaries and draws them in the sand
So when he lets his feelings show and you don't have to hold his hand
It's cause I got the boy so you got the man
I got the boy and you got the man
And I got the boy

And you don't wanna learn the truth of it
That the one you love belonged to someone else just tryna
Make it fit
Even though they got it wrong
And I'll try to come to peace with it
Knowing that he'll learn his lesson when I'm gone
Or when I've moved on

I bet he loves you proudly
Bet he understands
I bet he knows his own boundaries and draws them in the sand
So when he lets his feelings show and you don't have to hold his hand
It's cause I got the boy so you got the man
I got the boy and you got the man
But I taught the boy to act like a man
Yeah I got the boy so you could have that man
And now he's your man
Yeah you got the man
