Wanted Me Gone Lyrics by Josh Thompson

Turn It Up

2014

[Verse 1]
I put the good in front of bye, y'all
Put a hole in the drywall
Put the pedal to the firewall and I was gone
Met the boys at the starlight
Tried to drink a hundred Bud Lights
Lost count around midnight
But you got what you wanted baby
Yeah, you

[Chorus]
Wanted me, wanted me, wanted me, wanted me, wanted me gone
So I'm moving, I'm moving, I'm moving, I'm moving, I'm moving on
Yeah and now you cry and you cry and you cry cause you're all alone
But you wanted me, wanted me, wanted me, wanted me, wanted me gone

[Verse 2]
When you threw me out the backdoor
Screamin' like an Evinrude outboard
I guess I took a detour when you told me to go to hell
Cause I'm in heaven every weekend
The water's nice off the deep end
I bet that you were thinkin'
I'd be all by myself
Oh well, you

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Yeah, I hear you want me back
But I just can't do that
You

[Chorus x2]
