Tired Of Crying

Fats Domino · I Found My Thrill [2011]

Oh baby, I'm tired of crying over you

Oh baby, I'm tired of crying over you

I cried that I love you so

But that's where I ain't gonna cry no more



Yes, you went away, now you want to come back

No, no, no, baby, there ain't no day like that

I'm gonna be mean like you wanted to be

As I cried for you, now it's your turn to cry for me



Yes, you heard my song, you heard it once before

No matter what you do, you gotta reap what you sow

Yeah, baby, that's the way it's gonna be

As I cried for you, now it's your turn to cry for me
