VERSE 1
I didn't ask to go with you to Mexico,
I really didn't need the shopping sprees in LA on Melrose,
Boy if you didn't know it , well 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 been gone,
I've been holdin us down on my own, and oh I never
HOOK
I never ever cheated
I never ever lied
So you can stop asking, asking me why,
Why I never left you?
And Why I kept it real?
And why I'm still with you?

CHORUS
You should've known betta then to think I would leave,
You should've known betta then to doubt me,
It don't matter if you're up matter 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 your rich or poor
Out or in doing 5 to 10 You should've known betta
VERSE 2
What makes you think that I would forget about ya
Think about it, Who comes to see ya?
Every Saturday and Monday I was on that receiver,
Oh oh oh it's me your girl, your life, your world,
My family and friends they just don't understand
They say I should leave you alone,
But I say that they all should just leave us alone,
Don't you get it it it
HOOK
I never ever cheated
I never ever lied
So you can stop asking, asking me why,
Why I never left you?
And Why I kept it real?
And why I'm still with you?

CHORUS
You should've known betta then to think I would leave,
You should've known betta then to doubt me,
It don't matter if you're up matter 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 your rich or poor
Out or in doing 5 to 10 You should've known betta
BRIDGE
You should've known I would stay by your side,
And when yo whole crew said ride or die
See I'm the only who lived it, the only one who with it, the only with you goin through it,
The bills will stayed paid
The baby's okay and when you get back home we gone be straight
If I didn't leave you then I aint gone leave you now,
That's what love's about
You should known betta
Repeat CHRS
