[Verse 1]
Lately, I'm feeling stupid and crazy
'Cause I saw him with his new baby
And he treats her like she's the one
It's not that I want him back, ain't trying to be mean
But I bought him brand new clothes and burned his skinny jeans
But she'll never know that I made him better for her

[Chorus]
So give some credit where it's due
Give props to you know who
I gave him swag, I made him cool
He used to be a fool
So give some credit where it's due
Give props to you know who
You know who, you know who
Give credit where its due

[Verse 2]
Ooh, wee, he holds her hand at the movies
Never stares at other boobies
I bet she thinks he's the one
She should be thanking me and sending me some flowers
I taught him everything, now he can last for hours
She'll never know that I made him better for her

[Chorus]
So give some credit where it's due
Give props to you know who
I gave him swag, I made him cool
He used to be a fool
So give some credit where it's due
Give props to you know who
You know who, you know who
Give credit where it's due

[Verse 3]
Yo, he used to be whack, but I made him all that
Well shit, if you you think of my last name
I guess my training's where is at
Had him brushing his teeth, even flossing
Got him looking like Ryan Gosling
I guess that makes me pretty awesome
But I wasn't in love, so I tossed him

[Chorus]
So give some credit where it's due
Give props to you know who
I gave him swag, I made him cool
He used to be a fool
So give some credit where it's due
Give props to you know who
You know who, you know who
Give credit where it's due

[Bridge]
Give me that credit, baby, baby
Give me that credit, baby, baby
Give me that credit, baby, baby
'Cause you know who
Credit where it's due

[Outro]
You'll never know, you'll never know
He wasn't like this before
You'll never know, you'll never know
Unless you're hearing this song

Meghan Trainor

Meghan Trainor is a pop singer-songwriter from Nantucket. Before launching her solo career, she wrote songs for the likes of Sia and Sabrina Carpenter. She entered pop stardom with the controversial but danceable body-positivity anthem “All About That Bass,” which led her 2015 debut LP, Title.

In 2016, Meghan released her sophomore effort Thank You, which was preceded by the smash single “NO.” Peaking at #3 on the Hot 100, top 20 track “Me Too” & the reggae-influenced “Better” supported the release of the album.

Staying reasonably quiet in 2017, Trainor dropped the single “I’m A Lady” for the “The The Lost Village.” Trainor underwent vocal surgery during the year and needed time to rest her voice before returning to the limelight.
