it is about a woman who was in love with a guy who loved her but he was just despite their relationship because he was with another woman
[Verse 1]
What is this? I heard that you've got a new miss
Just broke up so you know that I'm pissed
They say you're faithful
I don't believe that shh, oh no, oh no
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I've tried to act like I don’t care
But it doesn't seem fair; you're so good to her
And I've tried to pretend I don't see
All those things that you do you couldn't do for me
[Chorus]
I was in love wit ya, but to hell wit ya
'Cause you didn't wanna to treat me right
I was in love wit ya, but to hell wit ya
'Cause you didn't wanna treat me right
Now you got another girl in your life (Another girl)
Giving her love all day, all night
I was in love wit ya, but to hell wit ya
'Cause you didn't wanna treat me right
[Verse 2]
So I hear, I've met the wench before
(Yeah, I remember that time we went to Pizza Hut
You told me she was your cousin)
I hear you learned to open doors
(When did you become such a damn gentleman?)
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I've tried (I've tried) to act like I don't care
But it doesn't seem fair; you're so good to her (So good)
And I've tried to pretend I don't see
All those things that you do you couldn't do for me
[Chorus]
I was in love wit ya, but to hell wit ya
'Cause you didn't wanna treat me right
(didn't wanna treat me right)
I was in love wit ya, but to hell wit ya
'Cause you didn't wanna treat me right
Now you got another girl in your life
Giving her love all day, all night (Day and night)
I was in love wit ya, but to hell wit ya (Ooh)
'Cause you didn't wanna treat me right
[Bridge]
What does she do to you
To make you give her everything
Like you never did for me?
Call it jealousy, but it's killing me
'Cause all the time that you were mine
You didn't treat me right
No, you didn't treat me right, no, no, no
Whoa
[Chorus]
I was in love wit ya, but to hell wit ya
'Cause you didn't wanna treat me right (Yeah)
I was in love wit ya, but to hell wit ya
'Cause you didn't wanna treat me right
Now you got another girl in your life
Giving her love all day, all night
I was in love wit ya, but to hell wit ya
'Cause you didn't wanna treat me right
[Outro]
I was in love wit ya
I, I was in love wit ya, but to hell wit ya
'Cause you didn't wanna treat me right
(You didn't wanna treat me right)
All day and night
Love wit ya, but to hell wit ya
'Cause you didn't wanna treat me right
(You didn't wanna treat me right)
I was in love wit ya
(You didn't wanna treat me right)
