[Intro]
Ooo, oh

[Verse 1]
Hey mama don’t you wait up looking for your boyfriend
‘Cause he may never come back, no he may never come back
Working so hard, so far nothing comes easy
It won’t get better believe me, don’t let him see you like that
‘Cause every time you hear his song, you fall right back into his arms
I’m sorry, but I’m sorry’s ain’t enough

[Chorus]
Why’d you have to go and leave us all alone?
If we’re gonna battle, better stop acting like a ghost
Why’d you have to leave your responsibility?
You get me all rattled, and then you go running out on me
Go farther, snake charmer
Go farther, snake charmer

[verse 2]
Three years to the date, too late, no change and you're still nowhere
No show, come and go, he doesn’t know that we’re caught in a cold warfare
Do you ever wonder if he looks like you, if he talks like you
I hope he turns out to be nothing like you

[Chorus]
Why’d you have to go and leave us all alone?
If we’re gonna battle, better stop acting like a ghost
Why’d you have to leave your responsibility?
You get me all rattled, and then you go running out on me
Go farther, snake charmer

[Bridge]
Here comes another plan, no follow through
Just another thing, you’re never gonna do
And it sounds so sweet I almost believed you
But I’m not the only one here that’s gonna lose
Why’d you have to go?
Why’d you have to go and leave us all alone?

[Outro]
If we’re going to battle, better stop acting like a ghost
Why’d you have to leave your responsibility?
You get me all rattled, and then you go running out on me
Go farther, snake charmer
Go farther, snake charmer
Go farther
