Aretha Franklin — I Told You So

[Verse] I hate to say, I told you so Though you deserve it, because you know You left me crying, for someone new But all the heartache, came back to you Now you’re begging me to take you back I told you so, I told you so [Verse] When you were king and riding high You thought your new love would never die While you were laughing, I cried alone You wouldn't even, throw me a bone Now you’re begging me to take you back I told you so, I told you so [Bridge] The things you sew, I know you should have reap I told you so, I told you so You outta learn to look before you leap I told you so, I told you so You can’t win when you’re a jumping jack I told you so, I told you so [Verse] I hate to say, I told you so But listen closely, I'll say it slow When you were leaving, I told you then You needn't ever, come back again So let me tell you with a last goodbye I told you so, I told you so So let me, let me, tell you with a last goodbye I told you so, I told you so
