This is how its Gotta Be // ©2006 J'anelle Avery

Verse 1
If you think I'm easy then boy you better pass me
I'm not havin' sex with you so don't even ask me
I'm not like some of the ladies my age
You won't see me shakin' it naked up on a stage
If you think I'm weak and that you can be disrespectful
you better watch what you say or you'll get an earful
I'm not hard to get along with but you gotta understand that this is how it works or you don't play

Bridge
Steep expectations right from the start
it's what I gotta do to protect my heart
it's men thats made me this way
I won't have my heart broken again that's why I say

Chorus
This is how its gotta be
this is how its gotta be
If you can't live up to my standards when you're dealin' with me
I'm sorry but you gotta leave

This is how its gotta be
this is how its gotta be
If you don't like it this way I won't make you stay but
this is how its gotta be

Verse 2
coming soon!
