Songtexte: Mary J. Blige. I Can Do Bad All By Myself.

:
Mmmmm
Ohh ohh
Ah yea
Ah ah yea

[Verse 1:]
Somebody told me once that pain is a game we all gotta play.
Then why am I in overtime and sudden death every other day.
I know that for the good of life there's a price we all gotta pay
But I'll pay till I'm poor and I still don't know what it is to have a good day.
Yeaa
Since everybody knows what it is that I need to do.
Well do me a favor, let me worry bout me and you worry bout you.

[Chorus:]
I don't need no one to put me down,
I'm on the ground can't get no lower.
And I don't need no one to hang around an make me frown just makes me look older.
And I don't need no one to black my eye an tell me lies
Don't wanna cry over nobody eles
No no nono I can do bad all by myself

[Verse 2:]
Somebody told me once that runnin from the rain don't make no sense.
I had my own dog cry for awhile now, it ges where ever I'm goin.
Yeaa
Your tellin me the grass just might be greener on he other side.
But I don't wanna take a chance on dirt when I got grass even tho the grass has died.
Oohh since everybody knows what it is that I need to do,
Well do me a favor, let me worry bout me an you worry bout you

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
Some feel real bad for me
I didn't ask you for your sympathy
NOOO I know God is watchin over me
So I guess that the good I was suppose to be
Ohh yes

[Chorus: to the end]
