Lyrics[]
(Verse 1)
Why do you (treat me like that)
Why do you do what you do
Hurting me so (treat me like that)
Treat me like your pet
Why do you (treat me like that)
Act like I'm your own slave now
Why do you (treat me like that)
Do all the things you do
(Chorus)
Oh, I packed my bags, loaded up my car
I'm out the door, and you're lucky, if you ever see me again
I'm the one that got away, the one who will never come back
Just answer me, why do you do what you do
(Verse 2)
Why do you, treat me the way you do
Why do you act just like I'm your object
Why do you pretend that everything's alright with us
Why don't you care, why don't you care about me
(Chorus)
