Cryin' Won't Help You lyrics

Oh, no matter what you say, baby

No matter what you do

The way you've been treatin' me, woman

Is comin' back home to you

And your cryin' won't help you, woman

Oh, cryin' won't help you, baby

Oh, cryin' won't help you, woman

'Cause you've been so mean to me

Oh, you must remember, baby

No matter where you go

Watch those seeds just scatter, woman

'Cause you're gonna reap just what you sow

And your cryin' won't help you, woman

Oh, cryin' won't help you now

Oh, cryin' won't help you, baby

'Cause you've been so mean to me

Oh, the way that you treat me, woman

Just can't understand

Oh, I'm gonna leave you, woman

Let you do the best you can

And your cryin' won't help you, baby

Oh, crying won't help you now

Oh, crying won't help you, woman

'Cause you been so mean to me

Look out!

Oh, just before I leave you, woman

Just wanna shake your hand

I'm gonna get me a woman, baby

Love to get you mad

And your cryin' won't help you, woman

Cryin' won't help you now

Oh, oh, cryin' won't help you, baby

'Cause you been so mean to me
