Now I'm a tell it like this girlfriend, he don't love you
Never have I seen him kiss or hug you
He don't make effort, he don't respect you
Or accept you for you
Tells you what to wear and how behave
Comes in your home and treats you like his slave
Don't need him if he makes you sacrifice your freedom
Get him out your life
Shouts and curses at you in public places
Sleep in your house on a part time basis
He ain't eve takin' care of his child
He don't make you smile
I understand you love him and your down
But that don't mean you got to be his clown
(Girl, you got to put him out)
Change them locks and all that
(Girl, you got to put him out)
And this time don't take him back
(Girl, you got to put him out)
Take the time to love yourself
(Girl, you got to put him out)
You can find real love with someone else
He don't even know how to be honest
All he know how to do is false promise
Any real man agree he ain't a man
After the first time that he raised his hand
Treat your home like hotel, don't pay his way
Lost count of the times that that dog has strayed
Sleep around, creep around, bring back disease
What if next time it is H.I.V
4 baby mummas, 8 kids and no work
You can play strong but I know that it hurt
You make the choices you gotta stop this
'Cos girlfriend the boy's worthless
I understand that y'all were love birds from school
How did you get from bein' his girl to just bein' his fool?
(Girl, you got to put him out)
Change them locks and all that
(Girl, you got to put him out)
And this time don't take him back
(Girl, you got to put him out)
Take the time to love yourself
(Girl, you got to put him out)
You can find real love with someone else
(Girl, you got to put him out)
Change them locks and all that
(Girl, you got to put him out)
And this time don't take him back
Your little girl needs a daddy I agree
But the fool is far from that
Any boy can be a father
That ain't reason enough to keep on takin' him back
He never reads with her or takes her out
That shits called neglect you hear
Sure she confused and tired of always seeing mummas face
Bruised and drownin' in tears
Look what you showin' her by lettin' him disrespect you
You just growin' her to think that it's something that all men do
You owe it to yourself and your daughter 'cos she thinks it's all alright
When she get older follow the footsteps you showed her
How you gonna look her in the eye
(Girl, you got to put him out)
Change them locks and all that
(Girl, you got to put him out)
And this time don't take him back
(Girl, you got to put him out)
Take the time to love yourself
(Girl, you got to put him out)
You can find real love with someone else
(Girl, you got to put him out)
Change them locks and all that
(Girl, you got to put him out)
And this time don't take him back
(Girl, you got to put him out)
Take the time to love yourself
(Girl, you got to put him out)
You can find real love with someone else
