Look out [Repeat x3]

Where its at
I know karmas comin' to pay me back
I'm with the sweetest thang that's on the map
I broke her heart in thirty seconds flat
In thirty seconds flat
Now how did I
Just how did I become that kind of guy
To look at girl and lie right in the eye
My momma told me willy that ain't right
Boy now that ain't right

I'm s s s sorry
I'm s s s sorry
I didn't mean to break your heart [Repeat x2]
I'm s s s sorry

Where she go
I got some things I gotta let her know
To fix the love now its impossible
But baby baby if we take it slow
If we take it slow
We can make it work
We just cant throw the love down in the dirt
You probably think that I'm a fuckin' jerk


Cuz the way I let you down it made you hurt
I didn't mean to make you hurt
