Best Thing I Never Had (Female/Country Rock)

VERSE
Everybody lookin' hard for the right one; they don't come along everyday
The one I found was second to none; look like everything goin' my way
I went to a party and took him; he was lookin' fine, oh, so fine
I was feelin' really good, yes, sir, 'til they were dancin' the bump and grind
PRE-CHORUS
Yeah, even before he was mine
He left me cryin,' dyin' on the vine
CHORUS
He's the best thing I never had
I wanted him, girl, I wanted him bad
But then he went and made me so mad
He's the best thing I never had
VERSE
I went over and tried to intervene, tried to reclaim what was mine
But it was like puttin' out a fire with gasoline; yeah, they were doin' just fine
I didn't know the woman from Eve's house cat; guess she saw what I saw in him, too
I never saw him again after that; they went sailin' off into the blue
Repeat PRE-CHORUS/Repeat CHORUS/SOLO/Repeat CHORUS
TAG
Spoken: Girl, I can't tell you how mad that made me
Lookin' all like a fool at that damn party
Where I come from, you're s'posed to dance with who brung ya'
Well, I tell you what, now, he can just kiss my...
Well, that's right
