One night my girl got restless, said "We never go out no more" |
|
I said, "I work too hard for dancing", said she didn't and slammed the door |
|
That girl she done me murder, and her getaway was clean |
|
I wonder why did she cry, when it's me that's getting mean? |
|
I swore I wouldn't follow, but my pride got the best of me |
|
When I found her in his arms, they were all that I could see |
|
Now some say love is blind, it must be crazy from the heat |
|
Tell me why do you cry, when it's him lying in the street? |
|
Chorus: |
|
Tell me now why do you cry? Baby, what can the matter be? |
|
Was that teardrop in your eye just for me? |
|
Tell me now why do you cry? Ain't you got what you waited for? |
|
You can cry out your eyes alone, forevermore |
|
Yeah yeah yeah, mmmmm |
|
Looks like the sky is falling, falling down on me |
|
I'm like Adam caught red handed, right beneath that old apple tree |
|
Now she got what she wanted, and I got ten to life |
|
Tell me why do you cry, when it's me holding the knife? |
|
(chorus) |

(Solo) |
|
(chorus) |

Meanwhile, I was still thinkin' |
