Don't let the sun catch you crying,
Crying at my front door
You done your daddy dirty
And he don't want you around here no more
Don't let the sun catch you crying,
Lying at my back door
You done your daddy dirty
And he don't want you around here no more
You can cry, cry, cry
Yes, and baby, you can wail
Beat your head on the pavement
Hey, till the man come,
Land you in jail
Don't let the sun catch you crying,
Lying at my back door
You done your daddy dirty
And he don't want you around here no more
You can cry, cry, cry
Yes, and baby, you can wail
Beat your head on the pavement
Hey, till the man come,
Land you in jail
