lyrics

Well I heard you moved on
And your doing real good
With that girl by your side, hell am I gone do.
Heard you found love, that real real stuff
It aint with me, so what am I gone do?

I heard you gave yourself for free (For free)
All I needed she received.
I built you to gain nothing
What am I supposed to say
Exept yippy-yi-yay

Yippy-yi-yay
Yippy-yi yippy-yi yippy-yi-yay
Yippy-yi-yay
Yippy-yi-yay
Yippy-yi yippy-yi yippy-yi-yay
Yippy-yi-yay (Yippy-yi, yippy-yi)
Yippy-yi-yay (Yippy-yi, yippy-yi)

In the moments that I live you’re the only one I think about
Only one I dream about,
Baby is this normal?
Thou I’m absent from your body am I present in your mind still?

Was until you gave yourself for free (for free)
All I needed she received
I built you to gain nothing
What am I supposed to say?

Well I heard you moved on
And your doing real good
With that girl by your side, hell am I gone do?
Heard you found love, that real real stuff
It aint with me, so what am I gone do?

I heard you gave yourself for free (For free)
And all I needed she received.
I built you to gain nothing
What am I supposed to say?
Exept yippy-yi-yay

Yippy-yi-yay
Yippy-yi yippy-yi yippy-yi-yay
Yippy-yi-yay
Yippy-yi-yay
Yippy-yi yippy-yi yippy-yi-yay
Yippy-yi-yay (Yippy-yi, yippy-yi)
Yippy-yi-yay (Yippy-yi, yippy-yi)

And if I told you would it matter?
Couldn’t change a thing if you loved me back.
Yes I’m happy.
Said that I’m happy for you
Know I’m happy
I said that I’m happy

Well I heard you moved on
And your doing real good
With that girl by your side, hell am I gone do?
Heard you found love, that real real stuff
It aint with me, so what am I gone do?

I heard you gave yourself for free (For free)
And all l I needed she received.
I built you to gain nothing
What am I supposed to - oooo yeah
Woah.
To- oooo yeah
Woah.
Yippy-yi-yay.
