[Verse 1]
Woman, don't you give me
No crocodile tears
I'll never take you back
In a million years
[Verse 2]
Don't let the sun catch you cryin'
Cryin' in my front door
You done Daddy dirty
He sure don't want you no more
[Verse 3]
Don't let the sun catch you lyin'
Lyin' at my front door
Daddy done turned salty
Baby, you made him so sore
[Chorus]
You can cry, cry, cry
Yes, baby, you can wail
Beat your little head on the banquette
'Til the man comes and throws you in jail
[Verse 4]
Don't let the sun catch you cryin'
Cryin' in my front door
You know you done me dirty
Sure don't want you no more
[Piano Solo]
[Chorus]
You can cry, cry, cry
Yes, baby, you can wail
Beat your little head on the pavement
'Til the man comes and throws you in jail
[Verse 5]
Don't let the sun catch you cryin'
Cryin' at my front door
You know you done me dirty
I sure don't want you no more
[Outro]
You done Daddy dirty
And he sure don't want you no more
