Lyrics

[Intro]
Oh, yeah, ooh
[Verse 1]
When you said you were leaving
To work on your mental health
You didn't mention the cheating, yeah
You kept that one to yourself
[PreChorus]
I got so mad, was gonna
Cuss you out outside your house
For everyone to see
Wanted to trash your Benz
Tell all your friends how cruel you were to me
[Chorus]
Instead I wrote a song
'Bout how you did me wrong
I could have cried at home
And spent the night alone
Instead I wrote a song
I feel much better now
Me and my girls are out
And we all sing along
Instead I wrote a song
[Chorus]
Da-da-da-da-da-dai
Da-da-da-da-da-dai
Da-da-da-da-da-da-ah-ai
Instead I wrote a song
Da-da-da-da-da-dai
Da-da-da-da-da-dai
Da-da-da-da-da-da-ah-ai
Instead I wrote a song
[Verse 2]
I kept my cool and composure
My mother would be so proud
I was ready for a sentence, baby
Instead I wrote it all down
[PreChorus]
Oh, I was gonna
Cuss you out outside your house
For everyone to see
Wanted to trash your Benz
Tell all your friends how cruel you were to me
[Chorus]
Instead I wrote a song
'Bout how you did me wrong
I could have cried at home
And spent the night alone
Instead I wrote a song
I feel much better now
Me and my girls are out
And we all sing along
Instead I wrote a song
[Chorus]
Da-da-da-da-da-dai
Da-da-da-da-da-dai
Da-da-da-da-da-da-ah-ai
Instead I wrote a song
Da-da-da-da-da-dai
Da-da-da-da-da-dai
Da-da-da-da-da-da-ah-ai
Instead I wrote a song
[Bridge]
Let's celebrate
Dance it away
I thought my heart would break
[Chorus]
Instead I wrote a song
'Bout how you did me wrong
I could have cried at home
And spent the night alone
Instead I wrote a song
I feel much better now
Me and my girls are out
And we all sing along
Instead I wrote a song
