[Verse 1]
He was kinda like Superman
Show up, save the day, disappear and then
We wouldn't hear from him 'til Christmas
And he was always a whole lotta fun
'Til he'd get one drink too drunk
A fight would start, he'd be breaking hearts and dishes
[Chorus]
I used to say that I'd be damned
Before I'd ever fall in love with a man
Like the one Mama wasted her youth on
When I wait up all night alone
I feel like I'm six years old again
You're just like him
[Verse 2]
Daddy had the bluest eyes
Kept my Mama hypnotized
Now I finally realize the reason
They say love's like coming home
And I came from a broken one
So why am I surprised you're always leaving?
[Chorus]
I used to say that I'd be damned
Before I'd ever fall in love with a man
Like the one Mama wasted her youth on
When I wait up all night alone
I feel like I'm six years old again
You're just like him
[Chorus/Outro]
Promises all sound the same
Swear up and down you're gonna change
But he never did
And I'm not that little kid
That's why I can't do this again
You're just like him
