Elle King - I Told You I Was Mean Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I lied to you, I never cried for you
I swear that I tried to but I had better things to do
Now you're on the road with your painful load
And the words I spoke left your big heart broke

[Chorus]
And ain't no use to bother because love is for the poor
So I left you knockin' outside my front door
You knew what this was, I don't want you anymore
I warned you before
I warned you before
Well, I could've sworn I told you I was mean

[Verse 2]
You were a sweet old thing and I was lonely
So I let you hold me for a limited time only
You see, you're nothing to me
'Cause I'll always be a bad, bad seed

[Chorus]
And it ain't no use to bother because love is for the poor
So I left you knockin' outside my front door
You knew what this was, I don't want you anymore
I warned you before
I warned you before
Well, I could've sworn I told you I was mean
Dum-de-dum, dum-dum
I'm just a mean old thing
Dum-de-dum, dum-dum

[Chorus]
Ain't no use to bother because love is for the poor
So cut out your knockin' 'cause I will never come
I will never come to the door
You knew just what this was and I don't want you forevermore
I warned you before, hey, baby
I warned you before, oh, honey
Well, I could've sworn I told you I was mean
Dum-de-dum, dum-dum
I'm just a mean old thing
Dum-de-dum, dum-dum
