I don't know a lot about you But I know you took my spot And I genuinely hope he's what you want 'Cause he's a lot different at 28 Than he was at 21, they say One woman's trash is another woman's treasure But he learned a lot, I swear to God he's gonna treat you better I bet he loves you proudly, bet he understands I bet he knows his own boundaries and draws them in the sand So when he lets his feelings show and you don't have to hold his hand It's 'cause I got the boy so you got the man I got the boy and you got the man And I got the boy I bet he takes (oh yeah) his coffee more bitter But when he makes a promise, he delivers So you won't break like I did Knowing that he ran away Yeah, now I know it's from the pain when they say One woman's trash is another woman's treasure (Doesn't mean she didn't get hurt) yeah But he learned a lot, I swear to god he's gonna treat you better (no, no) I bet he loves you proudly, bet he understands (bet he understands) I bet he knows his own boundaries (oh) and draws them in the sand So when he lets his feelings show and you don't have to hold his hand It's 'cause I got the boy so you got the man I got the boy and you got the man (oh) And you don't wanna learn the truth of it That the one you love belonged to someone else Just tryna make it fit even though they got it wrong And I'll try to come to peace with it Knowing that he'll learn his lesson when I'm gone Or when I've moved on I bet he loves you proudly (he loves you proudly) Bet he understands (and he understands) I bet he knows his own boundaries and draws them in the sand (Oh) so when he lets his feelings (lets his feelings) show You don't have to hold his hand (you don't) It's 'cause I got the boy so you got the man (I got the boy, I got the boy) I got the boy and you got the man But I taught the boy to act like a man Yeah, I got the boy so you can have that man (that man) And now he's your man Ooh-oh (oh), no, no Yeah, you got the man
