Side Piece

(Album: Julia Cole - 2021)

A deadline at the office
Swear you ain't gotta choice
A Friday at the ball game
Catching drinks with the boys
A weekend at the lake house
When you knew I couldn't come
Another late-night workout
An early morning run

So that's what you call your side piece
White lie little stories
Tryna hide it from me
Bless her heart, that poor thing

Honey, I'm so sorry
It's too bad you gon' miss me
When you reach for the real thang
And all you feel is lonely
You can call your side piece, ooh ooh ooh ooh
Go 'head call your side piece, ooh ooh ooh ooh

A little lapse in judgement
A messed up nothing fling
A million "I'm so sorrys"
Swear she don't mean a thang
A moment of weakness
Just wasn't thinking straight
A ride down the wrong road
A stupid mistake

So that's what you call your side piece
White lie little stories
Tryna hide it from me
Bless her heart, that poor thing

Honey, I'm so sorry
It's too bad you gon' miss me
When you reach for the real thang
And all you feel is lonely
You can call your side piece, ooh ooh ooh ooh
Go 'head call your side piece, ooh ooh ooh ooh

I wish I knew her name
I'd hit her up and tell her thanks
She's a saint for taking you off my hands

That's what you call your side piece
White lie little stories
Tryna hide it from me
Bless her heart, that poor thing

Honey, I'm so sorry
It's too bad you gon' miss me
When you reach for the real thang
And all you feel is lonely
You can call your side piece, ooh ooh ooh ooh
Go 'head call your side piece, ooh ooh ooh ooh

Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
