Used to be the richest
|
But I didn't pay attention
|
Messed around and maxed out of love
|
So now my hearts empty
|
|
I used to wake up daily
|
in the arms of a blessing
|
Couldn't see what was right in front of me
|
It taught me a lesson
|
|
Went around here hittin' these clubs
|
Throwing up money
|
Picking up girls
|
Bring 'em back to the house on the hill
|
Two at a time
|
Pop 'em like pills
|
When my prize was sittin' at home
|
Waiting for me all along
|
Never thought that one day I'd come home
|
and she'd be gone...
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
She was the one that got away
|
The one I regret
|
My biggest mistake
|
She was my Mrs. Wife
|
Miss I can spend my life
|
It's too late, now she's miss mistake
|
She should've been my Mrs.
|
Don't wanna move on but I know that she has
|
Now every other I compare to her
|
She was my Mrs. Wife
|
Miss I can spend my life
|
It's too late, now she's Ms. mistake
|
She should've been my Mrs.
|
|
I'm not asking for.. what we had before
|
Took my loss like a man its over now I understand
|
|
Oh, I messed up what we had
|
Oh, could've been the mother of my kids
|
|
Oh, I knew just what I did
|
Now I gotta live with it
|
|
You really didn't take that long
|
The lies got old, the bed got cold
|
Shut her heart up, closed the door
|
Told me no, not no more
|
|
So I gotta respect her wishes
|
She deserves more than I've given
|
And I'll probably be okay if I can get her out of my brain
|
|
[REPEAT CHORUS]
|
|
Mrs. Settle down
|
No more sleepin' around...
|
Mrs. Picket Fence
|
Mrs. Brand New House
|
|
But I screwed it up
|
I misstepped out of luck
|
Had a good one
|
Now she's got a new mister
|
|
If there's a brother out there that understands then help me say yeeeahh...yeah whoaohoh
|
|
Anybody that knows you better go and help say whoaohoh
|
|
She was the one ...
|
|
[Guitar Solo] Oh, oh,oh,oh
|
|
[REPEAT CHORUS]
|
|
Should've been my Mrs.
|
Should've been my Mrs....
|
Now it's too late...
|
