Backstory:

Took an old song and generated a new idea. Cut and pasted some lyrics from songs I never finished and came up with this final piece. I feel it's the most current song I've written and my granddaughter loved it so.... Let's see.

It's a familiar theme...a guy plays fast and loose with women's feelings until he runs into a woman who's unimpressed by him 

Lyrics:

                                                  
Verse:
You ought to stand up and take yourself a bow
You've cramped the style of a man who couldn't be tied down 
One who's lead a reckless life looking out for just himself 
Made a lotta women cry without caring how they felt

But this new reality, for me it doesn't work
I think the way you're treating me is beneath what I deserve 

Chorus:
Still you've got that kinda love
That makes me feel so weak
Like getting punched in the gut 
You make it hard for me to breathe 
Yeah you got somethin'
That stopped me in my tracks
To all the women who meant nothin'
This feels like payback

Verse:
I'm a changed man and I'm trying something new
Making dinner plans, buying flowers and balloons 
I show up at your place to find that you already left
Then you make me wait for days 
before answering my texts

Pre Chorus:
My heart's in a collision without a seat belt
First time you revved the engine I shoulda jumped out 

Chorus:
Still you've got that kinda love
That makes me feel so weak
Like getting punched in the gut
You make it hard for me to breathe 
Yeah you got somethin'
That stopped me in my tracks
To all the women who meant nothin'
This feels like payback

Bridge:
I'm like a hunter hunting game
that he can never catch
And you enjoy the chase 
You like making me look bad
I've swallowed all my pride 
and I don't care who knows
You say jump I say "how high"
Cause you're running this whole dam show 

Chorus:
Still you've got that kinda love
That makes me feel so weak
Like getting punched in the gut
You make it hard for me to breathe 
Yeah you got somethin'
That stopped me in my tracks
To all the women who meant nothin'
This feels like payback
