"Maybe I Deserve" lyrics
Do you mind if I tell the truth for a second, y'all?
Maybe I deserve
To wonder who's calling so damn late
For you to say I'm tripping, just a homie from upstate
(Said it's just a homie)
Don't he know it's one o'clock in the mornin'
You say baby it's cool (baby it's cool)
Maybe I deserve
For you to say he's comin' into town (later on this evenin')
You was just wondering if you and him can hang out
I don't like it, but I know I gotta trust you
It ain't cool 'cause I know it's true
Maybe I deserve
For you to go out and find some other guy
Maybe I deserve
For you to stay out with him all night
Maybe I deserve
For you to do all the things I did to you
Maybe I deserve
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Maybe I deserve
Maybe I deserve
For you to put on a sexy dress
For me to ask you "Who the hell you tryna impress?"
("Who the hell you tryna impress?")
For you to laugh it off like it ain't nothin'
I know it's somethin'
(Maybe, just maybe)
Maybe I deserve
To sit at home and wonder where you are
Is he kissin' you, touchin' you, holdin' you, what?
To take a drink to help ease my mind
I wanna be mad (wanna be)
After all those times (after all those times)
Maybe I deserve
For you to go out and find some other guy
Maybe I deserve
For you to stay out with him all night
Maybe I deserve
For you to do all the things I did to you
Maybe I deserve
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Maybe I deserve
Maybe I deserve
For me to ask you "Where you've been?"
("Where the hell you've been?")
Maybe I deserve
For you to say "I better stop trippin'"
Maybe I deserve
To grab your neck until you let me know
Maybe I deserve
For you to run cryin', cryin' out the door
Maybe I deserve
To grab my coat, and chase you down the street
Maybe I deserve
To say it's not you, it's my own insecurities
Maybe I deserve
For you to say "Yes. I cheated on you"
("Yes. I cheated on you")
Maybe I deserve
And I won't care 'cause after all I put you through
Maybe I deserve, -serve... yeah
To be mistreated sometimes
Maybe I deserve
To even be lied to sometimes
Maybe, maybe you should go cheat on me too
Maybe I should sit and wait by the phone
(Maybe I should)
'Cause I've done paged you about three or four times
(Maybe I deserve)
Girl I know, girl I know what I put through baby
I put you through hell
(Maybe I deserve) And I don't get less
(Maybe I deserve) I don't get less
(Maybe I deserve) I don't get less
See we men can't take another man pleasing our women
(Oh no, no) We can't even stand waiting by the phone
But we do the same shit (Oh damn, oh damn, oh damn)
I know I deserve it, but right now, I hate you so much right now
And I should hate myself, hate myself
Maybe I deserve
To wonder who's calling so damn late
For you to say I'm tripping, just a homie from upstate
(Said it's just a homie)
Don't he know it's one o'clock in the mornin'
You say baby it's cool (baby it's cool)
Maybe I deserve
For you to say he's comin' into town (later on this evenin')
You was just wondering if you and him can hang out
I don't like it, but I know I gotta trust you
It ain't cool 'cause I know it's true
Maybe I deserve
For you to go out and find some other guy
Maybe I deserve
For you to stay out with him all night
Maybe I deserve
For you to do all the things I did to you
Maybe I deserve
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Maybe I deserve
Maybe I deserve
For you to put on a sexy dress
For me to ask you "Who the hell you tryna impress?"
("Who the hell you tryna impress?")
For you to laugh it off like it ain't nothin'
I know it's somethin'
