She was a hot blooded women, he never saw it coming
She hit him from the side that's blind
She never gave a warning, he woke up in the morning
Layin there next to his pride
He got a little crazy when she had a little baby
Cause it filled him with a fatherly pride
But a couple years later when their love started fading
He hurt so bad he nearly died

It's been a long time, since I was faithful
It's been a long time, since I was grateful
It's been a long time, since I could look you in the eye
It's been a long time, since I was grateful

She's a mother with a daughter, sitting by the water
Cause it's better for her baby to breathe
She got a man that's in prison cause he didn't wanna listen
Now he's sitting, waiting on a reprieve

And she loves her litlle baby but she get a litlle crazy
Cause it's harder than she ever conceived
He left her on her own, but she's doin it alone
Cause she loves him like he wouldn't believe

It's been a long time, since I was faithful
It's been a long time, since I was grateful
It's been a long time, since I could look you in the eye
It's been a long time, since I was grateful

He's a friend and a lover, husband and a brother
He's always been a prodigal son
He gets a lot of drama when he go to see his momma
Cause he curses like a son of a gun

He's begging to his lady, let him see his baby
He swears that she's the only one
He's got a heart full of sorrow, he's living for tomorrow
And he's sorry for the damage he's done

It's been a long time, since I was faithful
It's been a long time, since I was grateful
It's been a long time, since I could look you in the eye
It's been a long time, since I was grateful

It's been a long time, since I was faithful
It's been a long time, since I was grateful
It's been a long time, since I could look you in the eye
It's been a long time, since I was grateful
