Blame On Me

My grandma used to tell me, she used to say
"When your own dog get to barkin' at you
Baby, I want you to understand something
That means somebody else's feet."
Listen

When your own dog get to barkin' at you
Gimme somebody else's feet
I did wanna believe it
Even a blind man can see
That my woman been cheatin'

Fool me once, yeah, that's a shame on you
Fool me twice, yeah, that's a shame on me
She ain't the woman that she used to be
But I'ma put the blame on me (I'ma put the blame on)

When your own dog get to barkin' at you
Gimme somebody else's feet (somebody else's feet)
I did wanna believe it
Even a blind man can see
That my woman been cheatin' (my woman been cheatin')
Fool me once, yeah, that's a shame on you
Fool me twice, yeah, that's a shame on me
She ain't the woman that she used to be
But I'ma put the blame on me (I'ma put the blame on)

I can tell by the look in your eye
You got a lot to say
So I'ma get this off my chest
And let it fly out the window

My new karma gonna come up
But damn, she had it from the day
Too busy jumpin' in crowds
Forgot about center stage

I heard you feelin' so unsure (unsure)
I heard you feelin' so insecure
But to see you walkin' out that door
I know your heart can't take no more
I ain't gonna sit on this song
And talk about the things I do (talk about the things I do)
I'ma talk about the things that I didn't
(Talk about the things that I didn't)

It's amazing
All the small things I was missin'
She didn't care about no money
All she wanted was time (and attention)

And me not knowin' another man
Was around that corner
Waitin' to catch me slippin' (waitin' to catch me slippin')

Say you can promise her the moon
The stars, the sun, the sky, and all the above
But don't forget about the loyalty
The respect and the trust that come with the love

They say you live and you learn (live and you learn)
Either you crash or you burn (either you crash or you burn)
But you don't wanna be the one in that chair (in the chair)
When your own dog start barkin' at you (barkin' at you)

Gimme somebody else's feet
I did wanna believe it
Even a blind man can see
That my woman been cheatin'

Fool me once, yeah, that's a shame on you
Fool me twice, yeah, that's a shame on me
She ain't the woman that she used to be
But I'ma put the blame on me
I can't put this on nobody but me
And that's a shame on me

I pretty much opened up the door
And let another man walk in
(That's a shame on me)
Fool me once, yeah, that's a shame on you
Fool me twice, yeah, that's a shame on me

Don't let it be a woman's heart
That's a shame on me
Blame on me
