Lyrics

VERSE
We got goin’ good, all understood, so I moved in
We were doin’ well, I could tell it was a win-win
But now it may be too damn late
I guess it was during one of our debates
That I said something I’m sure I didn’t mean

CHORUS
She took it the wrong way, now I’m a long way from where I wanta be
She took it too strong; it’s all gone wrong; whoa is me
If I could get those words back, I wouldn’t have to pack my stuff and leave
She took it the wrong way, now I’m a long way from where I wanta be

VERSE
To tell you the truth, it was uncouth, whatever that means
That’s what’s she said; now I’m eatin’ bread and sardines
I don’t mean to make an excuse
But the words came loose from a bad tooth
That makes sense to me and oughta be a good defense

Repeat CHORUS/VERSE
I took it on the chin; man I have been through it all before
If she’d let me back in, I would sin like that no more
I’m gonna learn to keep my mouth shut
Now that I know what she calls smut
And all will be good for manhood; knock on wood

SOLO/Repeat CHORUS/TAG
She took it the wrong way, now I’m a long way from where I wanta be
