Don’t Let the Sun Catch You Crying
[Verse 1]
Don't let the sun catch you cryin'
Cryin' at my front door
You've done daddy dirty
He sure don't want you no more
[Verse 2]
Don't let the sun catch you lyin'
Lying at my front door
Daddy's done turned salty
Baby, you made him so
[Bridge]
You can cry, cry, cry
Yes, baby, you can wail
Beat your head on the pavement
'Til the man comes and throws you in jail
[Verse 1]
Don't let the sun catch you cryin'
Cryin' at my front door
You've done daddy dirty
He sure don't want you no more
[Bridge]
You can cry, cry, cry
Yes, baby, you can wail
Beat your head on the pavement
'Til the man comes and throws you in jail
[Verse 1]
But don't let the sun catch you cryin'
Cryin' at my front door
You've done daddy dirty
He sure don't want you no more
[Outro]
When the moon goes down in the dawnin'
And the sun comes up in the mornin'
Don't let the sun catch you cryin'
'Cause daddy don't want you no more
