I Should Have Known

lyrics and music by Steffen Presley
Verse 1   I’m going to tell you a story
It did not start out well
She took me on a wild ride
On the road to Hell

She was quite a honey
Amazing in the sack
She ran off with all my money
While talkin’ smack behind my back

Chorus I should have known better
    (I wish I never met her)
I should have known
    (I’d be better off alone)
Verse 2   I feel so bad for the kids
They saw me hit the skids
So then, she took them away
and said I had no say
Chorus I should have known better
    (I should not have let her)
I should have known
    (For that I must atone)
Bridge It all started when I wrecked the car
After a night out at the bar
I had learned that she was cheating
And for that I took a beating
Chorus And I should have known better
I should have known
Verse 3   Now I’m turning things around
I’m no longer on the ground
Now, since you came along
I’ve been feeling strong
Chorus I should have known better
    (I wish I never met her)
I should have known
    (I’d be better off alone)
