Everybody knows where you go when the sun goes down
I think you only live to see the lights of town
I wasted my time when I would try try try
'Cause when the lights have lost their glow you'll cry cry cry

Soon your sugar-daddies will all be gone
You'll wake up some cold day and find you're alone
You'll call for me but I'm gonna tell you bye bye bye
When I turn around and walk away you'll cry cry cry

You're gonna cry cry cry and you'll cry alone
When everyone's forgotten and you're all alone
You're gonna cry
Cry cry cry

I lie awake at night and wait 'til you come in
You stay a little while and then you're gone again
Every question that I ask I get a lie lie lie
For every lie you tell you're gonna cry cry cry

When your fickle love gets old no one will care for you
You will come to me for a little love that's true
I will tell you no and you'll ask me why why why
When I remind you of all of this you'll cry cry cry

You're gonna cry cry cry and you'll want me then
It'll hurt when you think of the fool you've been
You're gonna cry
Cry cry cry

You're gonna cry
Cry cry cry
You're gonna cry
Cry cry cry
Cry cry cry
Cry cry cry
