Lyrics
[verse]
Back in school you passed me every day
Never once had a single word to say
Homecoming queen and the football crown
Never looked twice at the quiet kid in town
Now the lights are on and the crowd's gone wild
Guess the quiet kid grew up in style
[chorus]
How do you like me now
Now that I'm getting somehow
Everything I dreamed while you looked away
How do you like me now
Take a look at me now
I'm the one they're all talking about today
[verse]
You married money, you married fame
Thought that quiet kid would stay the same
But the guitar strings turned into gold
And the story's different than you were told
I'm not bitter, just a little proud
Standing here in front of the whole crowd
[chorus]
How do you like me now
Now that I'm getting somehow
Everything I dreamed while you looked away
How do you like me now
Take a look at me now
I'm the one they're all talking about today
[bridge]
No hard feelings, water under the bridge
Just remember when you stood on that ridge
Looking down like I was nothing much
Guess the underdog can be a lot as such
[chorus]
How do you like me now
Now that I'm getting somehow
Everything I dreamed while you looked away
How do you like me now
Take a look at me now
I'm the one they're all talking about today
