In 1955, when Cash first auditioned for the Sun Records label, he failed to impress its founder Sam Phillips after presenting himself as a gospel singer.

[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
You're gonna cry, cry, cry, and you'll cry alone
When everyone's forgotten, and you're left on your own
You're gonna cry, cry, cry
[Verse 3]
I lie awake at night to 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
[Verse 4]
When your fickle love gets old, no one will care for you
Then you'll come back to me for a little love that's true
I'll tell you no, and then you'll ask me, "Why, why, why?"
When I remind you of all of this, you'll cry, cry, cry
[Chorus]
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
