Lyrics

Cry! Cry! Cry!

It's bad you know

When you have those girls

And they try to slip out on you

I had one like that

But I heard her feet

When they hit that bridge

That's when I told her

I'm gonna leave you babe, I'm gonna leave you baby

I'm gonna leave you babe, I'm gonna leave you baby

I don't care where you go

RL:She said what!?

JS:What?

RL:I told her again, Jon

JS:What!

I'm gonna leave you babe, I'm gonna leave you baby

I'm gonna leave you babe, I'm gonna leave you baby

I'm gonna leave you babe

I don't care where you go

RL:Come on Brown!

I'm going

I'm going

Don't care where you go

RL:Then I told her these words

I'd rather be dead, I'd rather be dead

I'd rather be dead, I'd rather be dead

Six feet in the ground

RL:She ask me why?

JS:What!

RL:Yeah!

JS:What!

RL: I just told her

Some other man, some other man

Some other man, some other man

Always hanging around

RL: Look out Jon!

RL:Hey!

I'm going

I'm going

Don't care where you go

RL:Well well well!
