I've Come to Expect It from You

George Strait · The Ultimate Collection [Madacy 2 Disc] [2006]

(Dean Dillon - Buddy Cannon)



So upset, nervous wreck

I can't believe she said goodbye

Sit and smoke, cry and joke

About these tears in my eyes.



Chorus:

How could you do what you gone and done to me

I wouldn't treat a dog the way you treated me

But that's what I get

I've come to expect it from you.



A million times, a million lines

And I bought 'em every one

You don't care, you rip and tear

Every dream I've counted on.



I guess I should thank my unlucky stars

That I'm alive and you're the way you are

But that's what I get

I've come to expect it from you.

Chorus:

How could you do what you gone and done to me

I wouldn't treat a dog the way you treated me

But that's what I get

I've come to expect it from you.



I could raise hell but what the hell

It wouldn't do a bit of good

I can leave, my heart agrees

It seems to think that I should.



There won't be no more next time doing me wrong

You'll come back this time to find out that I'm gone

But that's what you get

You should expect that from me.



That's what I get

I've come to expect it from you...
