Lyrics

He was tall as he was handsome
A cool drink in the heat.
He wanted my love but he needed my money
To help him back up on is feet.
I bought his hard luck story.
Like a fool I took him in.
I was his lover but I felt like his mother,
An all night ATM.

Chorus: If he?s broken
I can?t try to fix him.
If he?s tarnished
I can?t make him shine.
If he ain?t grown then he?s on his own.
?Cause I ain?t got the time.
You can?t change a man
But you can change your mind.

I let him use my credit cards.
He ran ??em up to the limit.
Then he lost his job and he wrecked my car.
He was trouble and I was in it.
He said he?d pay me back real soon
But I ain?t seen nothin? yet.
I got burned but it?s a lesson learned.
One I?ll never forget.

Chorus

Bridge: I thought he had potential;
Like a diamond in the rough.
With a little spit and polish
I?d straighten him right up.

Chorus
