Lyrics

Ooh ahh

Yea-yeah

I don't need love

Cause you don't make it easy with you, playing with my heart

Doing the things that you do, maybe I need freedom

Cause fighting with you ain't cute and I don't have time

To argue what's a lie or the truth, aye

Going up and down this escalator

Cause your mind works like an elevator

First you hate me, then you love me later

Then you act like your doing me a favor

I want you to know

If you gonna come and go whenever you want

I rather be single

If I'mma raise these kids all on my own

I rather be single

Cause it seems like I'll be better alone

I rather be single

Cause the things you do, ain't turning me on

I rather be single

I don't want you

If you're not gonna do your part, and I don't really want to

Listen to you when you talk, just get out my head

Filling me with you thoughts

Cause I got my own mind, don't have time

To be going up and down

This escalator

Cause your mind works like an elevator (you be up and down)

First you hate me

Then you love me

Oh, make up your mind

You ain't doing me no favors

I want you to know

If you gonna come and go whenever you want

I rather be single

If I'mma raise these kids all on my own

I rather be single

Cause it seems like I'll be better alone

I rather be single

Cause the things you do, ain't turning me on

I rather be single

I ain't never gonna lose sleep

If you really wanna leave, just go

And I'm always gonna choose me

So pack your bags and take all your clothes

Its me, myself, and I

And I'm not gonna let me down

Its me, myself, and I

I'm better when you're not around

If you gonna come and go whenever you want

I rather be single

If I'mma raise these kids all on my own

I rather be single

Cause it seems like I'll be better alone

I rather be single

Cause the things you do, ain't turning me on

I rather be single

Oh
