Lyrics
Verse 1:
He came home with whiskey on his breath
And perfume on from someone else's dress
He'd be dead by now if looks could kill
If I can't have him, nobody will
Chorus:
Well, a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do
I can't keep him if he can't be true
It's not my fault, he made his choice before
And he won't smell like perfume anymore
Verse 2:
He walks right over and feeds me his lies
But I can see right through his cheating eyes
Oh I wish she was here so she could see
Just how much, he's tempting me
Chorus:
Well, a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do
I can't keep him if he can't be true
It's not my fault, he made his choice before
And he won't smell like perfume anymore
Bridge:
And it's a shame, oh it's a shame
He had to mess around and ruin his father's name
And it's a crime, oh it's a crime,
That Daddy cleaned his gun and wasted all his time.
Chorus:
Well, a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do
I can't keep him if he can't be true
It's not my fault, he made his choice before
And he won't smell like perfume anymore
