Verse 1:
I didn t ask to go with you to Mexico
I really didn t need the shopping sprees in L.A. or Melrose
Boy if you didn t know itwell now you know
I didn t need the furs or the jewelry
Because material things they don t mean much to me
And ever since you ve been gone
I ve been holding us down on my own
You know
Chorus:
I m never ever cheating
I never ever lied
So you can stop asking
Asking me why
Why I never left you
And why I ve kept it real
And why I m still with you
Refrain:
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 upmatter if you re down
Either way I m gonna be around
You should ve known that I would stay by your side
You should ve known your girl was gonna ride or die
And it just don t matter if you re rich or poor
Out here doing five to ten
You should ve known better
Verse 2:
What makes you think that I would forget about you
Think about itwho comes to see you
Every Saturday and Monday I was onon
It s me your girlyour lifeyour world
My family and friendsthey just don t understand
They say I should leave you alone
But I say that they should all just leave us alone
Don t you get it?
Chorus:
I m never ever cheating
I never ever lied
So you can stop asking
Asking me why
Why I never left you
And why I ve kept it real
And why I m still with you
Refrain:
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 upmatter if you re down
Either way I m gonna be around
You should ve known that I would stay by your side
You should ve known your girl was gonna ride or die
And it just don t matter if you re rich or poor
Out here doing five to ten
You should ve known better
