Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You don't know how I feel
You never know just how I feel
When I needed you to come around
You always tried to put me down
[Verse 2]
Oh, but I'm tellin' you girl, believe what I say
That you shouldn't, shouldn't have gone away
[Verse 3]
But it's alright
Alright, girl
You hurt me
But it's alright
[Verse 4]
Oh, but one day you will see
You'll never find a guy like me
Who treats you right, both day and night
You never have to worry 'cause it's alright
[Verse 5]
Oh, but I'm tellin' you girl, and I guess you know it's true
That I was made to love on you
[Verse 6]
But it's alright
Alright, girl
Yeah, it's alright
Alright, girl
Oh, yeah
[Verse 7]
Mama, my baby
Mama, my baby, yeah
[Verse 8]
It's alright
Alright, girl
Yeah, it's alright
Alright, girl
[Verse 9]
Now there's one thing I wanna say
You find a guy, he'll make you pay
He'll treat you bad, he'll make you sad
And you will lose the love you had
[Verse 10]
But I'm sorry to say, I told you so
That baby, you got to reap just what you sow
[Verse 11]
But it's alright
Alright, girl
Yeah, it's alright
Alright, girl
[Verse 12]
It's alright
Alright, girl
He'll treat you bad, he'll make you sad
But it's alright
Alright, girl
Hey, it's alright
