Lyrics

My baby left me for another guy
She calls him Giddy but she don't know why
But if I catch them at it someone's going to pay
For making me feel so bad for so long
The feeling only just went away

But I don't feel sick
I don't feel so bad anymore
I got over it
I don't feel so bad anymore

Rode all night 'till I finally hit the daybreak
Rode all night 'till I finally hit the day
Rode all night 'till I finally hit the daybreak
When the sun comes up I'm gonna catch Giddy up

My baby left me for another guy
She calls him Giddy but she don't know why
But if I catch them at it someone's going to pay
For making me feel so bad for so long
The feeling only just went away

I don't feel sick
I don't feel so bad anymore
I got over it
I don't feel so bad anymore

Rode all night 'till I finally hit the daybreak
Rode all night 'till I finally hit the day
Rode all night 'till I finally hit the daybreak
When the sun comes up I'm gonna catch Giddy up
