[Intro: De'Wayne]
Every time you cry, cry
Every time you cry, cry
[Verse 1: De'Wayne]
You so proud of everything that you do
You told your new friends you like white girl and liquor for food
You use to tell me 'bout how you wanted to move
But now you so dumbed down, it hurts my feelings
Ya rude, you know I'm
I'm stupid and needy for you
Now I'm bleeding, getting high
[Chorus: De'Wayne]
Every time you cry, cry
Every little lie I say makes you hate me
Huh, every time you cry, cry
And I smell your perfume makes me hate you, huh
Every time you cry, cry
Every time you cry, cry
[Verse 2: Awsten Knight]
It's been a year or five
You're hеre out the blue
You saw my Instagram
And it's too cool for you
Don't wanna see you cry, cry
'Causе you waste your time
I think you like me better back in Houston
With the blue hair like you're used to, fuck you
[Pre-Chorus: De'Wayne]
I'm tired of lying
Without you, baby, I'm dying
Every day, it was hell, but granny say it's worth trying though
[Chorus: De'Wayne]
Every time you cry, cry
Every little lie I say makes you hate me
Huh, every time you cry, cry
And I smell your perfume makes me hate you, huh
Every time you cry, cry
Every time you cry, cry
[Bridge: De'Wayne]
Okay
I'm stupid and needy for you
Got me bleeding and toasting for two
Cut me up and there's nothing to find
Still I'm wondering why
[Chorus: De'Wayne]
Every time you cry, cry
Every little lie I say makes you hate me
Huh, every time you cry, cry
And I smell your perfume makes me hate you, huh
Every time you cry, cry
Every little lie I say makes you hate me
Huh, every time you cry, cry
And I smell your perfume makes me hate you, huh
Every time you cry, cry
Every time you cry, cry
Every time you cry, cry
And I smell your perfume makes me hate you
