Found out my mans a cheater – and he doesnt know I know
The last time he went to meet her – I got a nice home video
As Im packing to leave Im thinking this could be fun
The only thing hes gettings what hes got on
Hauled off his trophy 8 point buck In what USED to be his truck
The only thing Im leaving him Is alone!
CHORUS:
I got what it takes to take what hes got
You can bet Hell regret un-tieing this knot
When he said I do – I guess he musta forgot
About the brand new house, the joint bank account
I put my name on everything he bought
Oh, I got what it takes – To take what hes got
Id give his last penny – for the look upon his face
When he comes home and aint nothing he owns – Sitting in his empty place
Im keepin the car Maxxin the credit cards
I aint leaving him – A helluva lot
The best part is the line I wrote – In a goodbye card – Aint this a
Helluva note
I hope shes got what it takes To take what YOU aint got!
CHORUS:
I got what it takes to take what hes got
You can bet Hell regret un-tieing this knot
When he said I do – I guess he musta forgot
About the brand new house, the joint bank account
I put my name on everything he bought
Oh, I got what it takes – To take what hes got
BRIDGE:
I got a home video A closed bank account
I got a reason to go And the guts to walk out
CHORUS: (Repeat)
I got what it takes to take what hes got
You can bet Hell regret un-tieing this knot
When he said I do – I guess he musta forgot
About the dog, the house, the joint bank account
I put my name on everything he bought
Oh, I got what it takes – To take what hes got
