Well, I had me a boy, turned him into a man

I showed him all the things that he didn't understand, whoa

And then I let him go

Now there's one in California who's been cursin' my name

'Cause I found me a better lover in the UK, hey, hey

Until I made my getaway

One, two, three, they gonna run back to me

'Cause I'm the best baby that they never gotta keep

One, two, three, they gonna run back to me

They always wanna come, but they never wanna leave

Ex's and the oh, oh, oh's

They haunt me like ghosts

They want me to make 'em oh, oh, oh

They won't let go, ex's and oh's

Ex's and the oh's (oh-oh-oh)

I had a summer lover down in New Orleans

Kept him warm in the winter, left him frozen in the spring, my, my

How the seasons go by

I get high and I love to get low

So, the hearts keep breaking, and the heads just roll, you know

That's how the story goes

One, two, three, they gonna run back to me

'Cause I'm the best baby that they never gotta keep

One, two, three, they gonna run back to me

They always wanna come, but they never wanna leave

Ex's and the oh, oh, oh's

They haunt me like ghosts

They want me to make 'em oh, oh, oh

They won't let go

Ex's and the oh's

Ex's and the oh's (oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
