I Told You So

Today I got a message I was expecting
Came from you
Sayin' you hate him
But to get it verbatim
I'd have to curse like you do
Well, I'm not sayin' it's your fault
I'm not sayin' he weren't wrong
But before we go into that
I wanna get my point across

What went down
Never had to go down
Down, down, down, down
He didn't have to be this way
You didn't have to see this pain
That's all around you now
You was iggin' me
And it was drizzlin'
And now you feel the rain
It's like pourin' on you
Don't ever say I never warned you
No

I don't mean to rub it in
But I told you so
You asked me as a friend
And I gave my best advice
When I told you no
He's not the one for you
That's what I said
But you had to find that out on your own
'Cause you're so grown
Well, let me guess
He got what he wanted
Left you alone
And he don't call no more
I told you so

So I guess you feel bad enough
As it is and you should 'cause I told you
And you're kickin' yourself
Right 'bout now over this
Don't wanna see you hurtin' this way
Well, I guess you'll know next time
Just what to do
No matter how many opinions you get
You'll know who to listen to

What went down
Never had to go down
Down, down, down, down
He didn't have to be this way
You didn't have to see this pain
That's all around you now
You was iggin' me
And it was drizzlin'
And now you feel the rain
It's like pourin' on you
Don't ever say I never warned you
('Cause I did)
No

I don't mean to rub it in
But I told you so
You asked me as a friend
And I gave my best advice
When I told you no
He's not the one for you
That's what I said
But you had to find that out on your own
'Cause you're so grown
Well, let me guess
He got what he wanted
Left you alone
And he don't call no more
I told you so

I can feel your pain
I know you're hurt
'Cause I've been down that exact same road before
I'm just sorry that I couldn't help save you
From his low down girl
Quit callin' for him
You should call on your girl
Ooh, yeah

I don't mean to rub it in
But I told you so
You asked me as a friend
And I gave my best advice
When I told you no
He's not the one for you
That's what I said
But you had to find that out on your own
'Cause you're so grown
Well, let me guess
He got what he wanted
Left you alone
And he don't call no more
I told you so

I don't mean to rub it in
But I told you so
You asked me as a friend
And I gave my best advice
When I told you no
He's not the one for you
That's what I said
But you had to find that out on your own
'Cause you're so grown
Well, let me guess
He got what he wanted
Left you alone
And he don't call no more
I told you so

But I told ya, but I told ya
But I told ya, but I told ya
