She been gone almost 2 weeks now
Tired and sad but I can't sleep now
I miss my kids and though I see them every day
It ain't the same

This big house is full of echoes
I'm thinkin' now, maybe I should just let it go
'Cause it's too big for just me
Too many memories

So I'll pay my child support like the judge tells me to
And I'll stay out all night drinkin' while I'm gettin' over you
It's sad but it's true, don't know what else I can do
This has pulled my fuckin' heart out and I sit here like a fool

Y'all better learn from this
Y'all better learn from this
Y'all gotta learn from this
Y'all better learn from this

Hard day trade if I were used to be
And eat ice-cream till the bottle's clean
Now I miss my kids and even though they live right up the streets
It's killin' me

My phone rings for what seems like hours
And when they ask for you, I say you're in the shower
It's my way of calmin' down
It's either that or burn this fuckin' house to the ground

So I'll pay my child support like the judge told me to
And I'll stay out all night drinkin' while I'm gettin' over you
It's sad but it's true, but I'm gon' do the best I can
And if by chance I don't make it to kids, the vision is in my Timberlands

Y'all better learn from this
Ooh, y'all better learn from this
Learn, learn from this
Yeah

So I guess I'll take it to the bridge
I drank one too many and this is what it is
It's about a man who lost his woman and his kids
And it goes a little something like this

Little Miss Muffet sat on her tuffet
Eating her porridge and whey
And then along came a liar, sat down beside her
And frightened Miss Muffet away again

Now she gone
She'll never come home, back home
Ooh, yeah, she's gone
If I could take it back
Ooh, I would take
Ooh, I would take
