There's trouble on your mind
You tell him you're fine
But I know you better than he does
I see it on your face
You wish that you could say
It's over and you don't feel the same
And you should have known better
That you can do better
You shouldn't be tethered to that ball and chain
Like a merry go round
You're spinning around
Wishing you'd listen to your momma say
He's no good for you baby
You try your best but lately
I can tell that your living like you're stuck on the ground
Oooh he's no good, he's no good for you
Oooh he's no good, he's no good for you
You can see it on his face
Can't trust a word he says
Shameless as the color red
He wears it like a crown
And when he puts you down
The king of hearts gets his revenge
And you should have known better
That you can do better
You shouldn't be tethered to that ball and chain
Like a merry go round
You're spinning around
Wishing you'd listen to your momma say
He's no good for you baby
You try your best but lately
I can tell that your living like you're stuck on the ground
Oooh he's no good, he's no good for you
Oooh he's no good, he's no good for you
And you should have known better
That you can do better
You shouldn't be tethered to that ball and chain
Like a merry go round
You're spinning around
Wishing you'd listen to your momma say
He's no good for you baby
You try your best but lately
I can tell that your living like you're stuck on the ground
Oooh he's no good, he's no good for you
Oooh he's no good, he's no good for you
