| What the use of the back rub, and everything that I do that you ask for
|
| If I could make you feel better I don’t pass up
|
| And now you gotta get gone
|
| I done spent a lot of nights trying to make it all right
|
| Up on cloud 9 i was on those flights
|
| You should’ve told me that you had a little fear of heights
|
| Before I were to think that you and me could have a life
|
| Created me a monster, yes i admit
|
| Stayed with you wen i found out about the chick
|
| I should have left then but I’m gonna leave now
|
| You ain’t stepping up so I gotta step down
|
| You gotta understand my position
|
| Keep talkin so you can’t listen
|
| You done up’d and made it all different
|
| When you was close it still felt distant
|
| So I’m gonna step down, it’s only right baby
|
| I gotta step down, cause I’m the kind of lady
|
| And I ain’t in the business trying to keep no dude
|
| That ain’t trying to be kept
|
| No, no, beating the hell out of a dead horse, out of a dead horse
|
| Now we ain’t working no more
|
| Beating the hell out of a dead horse, out of a dead horse
|
| It ain’t working no more
|
| I’m so tired, so damn tired
|
| Beating the hell out of a dead horse
|
| Beating the hell out of a dead horse
|
| It ain’t working no more
|
| We was making love like all day
|
| Then I guess it all just changed
|
| How you say that you ain’t know a thang
|
| After all the times I complained
|
| You said you was thinking bout a ring
|
| And I was dumb enough to believe
|
| Putting all this stress on me, look all this I don’t need
|
| So I guess I have to proceed
|
| Instead of us I’ma do me
|
| It’s time for me to break free
|
| You and me together just can’t be
|
| So I’m gonna step down, it’s only right baby
|
| I gotta step down, cause I’m the kind of lady
|
| And I ain’t in the business creating no wish list
|
| They ain’t even realistic
|
| Beating the hell out of a dead horse, out of a dead horse
|
| Beating the hell out of a dead horse, out of a dead horse
|
| It ain’t working no more
|
| I’m so tired, so damn tired
|
| Beating the hell out of a dead horse
|
| Beating the hell out of a dead horse
|
| It ain’t working no more
|
| This love seems quite unfamiliar
|
| Words mean nothing if I can’t feel 'em
|
| Beating the hell out of a dead horse
|
| Beating the hell out of a dead horse
|
| Yeah, boy you crazy, you got this twisted
|
| This good loving that you gon miss it
|
| Beating the hell out of a dead horse
|
| Beating the hell out of a dead horse
|
| It ain’t working no more, more |
