Mother-in-law Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We met young, we fell in love
Ain't that how the story always goes?
He's got a car and a sweet heart
He ain't afraid to let his feelings show
For the longest time, I was trying to find a flaw
'Cause when someone's good, there's always something wrong
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e117706-kelsea_ballerini~mother-in-law_lyrics.html ]
[Chorus]
Then I met the problem, her name is Ms. Johnson
The woman who raised the man I thought was mine
I swear, that lady is borderline crazy
And she don't think I'm good enough to be chosen by her only son
And I think I'd rather be alone than call
His mother, my mother-in-law
[Verse 2]
She points out my imperfections, says I'm headed in the wrong direction
Can't break the family bond apart, so I'll just take the broken heart
Man, I thought we were gonna be forever
But it was time for me to leave the moment I met her
[Chorus]
She's the situation causing all this separation
That woman is the devil in disguise
She loves her baby, so she's always gonna hate me
'Cause she don't think I'm good enough to be chosen by her only son
And I think I'd rather be alone than call
His mother, my mother-in-law
[Bridge]
She may be great under other circumstances
She may come around, but I ain't taking chances, so
[Chorus]
She's the issue that's got me drowning in these tissues
And I can guarantee that she don't care
As long as I'm long gone and he's still there
'Cause she don't think I'm good enough to be chosen by her only son
And I think I'd rather be alone than call
His mother, my mother-in-law
