Used To Have
Susan Rose
C Oct 2008


Verse
He used to have a big house
He used to big a big car
Had a big bank account
Well he had it all
He used to be the kind of guy that every girl could ever dream of, yea

Now all he’s got left are child support bills
And he’s livin’ with his mama down in Jacksonville
‘Cause she got it all and he got the shaft
Why can’t I find a man that’s not a used to have

Verse
He used to have a big boat
Out on his big ‘ole lake
Used to party all night before his big mistake
He used to like to travel and every weekend go out of town, yea

The only travelin now that he gets to do
Is when he’s drivin’ back and forth to the old courtroom
So she’ll get it all and he’ll get the shaft
Why can’t I find a man that’s not a used to have

Chorus
I do like the kids, now don’t get me wrong
It’s the baggage of the ex’s that tags along
Dealin’ with her issues every day
Her getting it all is price I’d pay

Verse
It’s the same old story
It’s the same old lines
It’s the same situation I hear all the time
I always seem to find them when the damage has already been done
When all he’s got left are credit card bills
And she’s livin’ in the mansion up on the hill
She got it all and he got the shaft
Why can’t I find a man that’s not a use to have


(inst)



Verse
It’s the same old story
It’s the same old lines
It’s the same situation I hear all the time
I always seem to find them when the damage has already been done
When all he’s got left are alimony bills
And she’s livin’ in the mansion up in Beverly Hills
She got it all and he got the shaft
Why can’t I find a man that’s not a use to have
Why can’t I find a man that’s not a use to have
Why can’t I find a man that’s not a use to have
