The Mothers of Invention
Go Cry on Somebody Else’s Shoulder
[Intro]
A year ago today was when you went away
But now you come back knocking on my door
And you say you're back to stay, but I say

[Chorus]
Go cry on somebody else's shoulder
I'm somewhat wiser now and one whole year older
I sure don't need you now and I don't love you anymore
Mmmh

[Verse 1]
You cheated me, baby, and told some dirty lies about me
Fooled around with all those other guys
That's why I had to set you free
I sure don't need you now and I don't love you anymore

[Pre-Chorus]
A year ago today, you went away
And now you come back cryin'
Cryin', "Darling, please, let me in!"
But I don't need you, no, I don't love you anymore
So go lean on, go cry on somebody else's door
Mmmh

[Chorus]
Go cry on somebody else's shoulder
I'm somewhat wiser now and one whole year older
I sure don't need you now and I don't love you anymore
Mmmh
[Spoken Intro]
Oh, my darling, go ahead and cry
Go ahead and let the tears fall out of your eye (Darling)
Let 'em fall on your dress, who cares if it makes a mess?
I gave you my high school ring at the root beer stand
We had a teen-age love, baby
I thought it was charp, it was really so grand, but

[Verse 2]
You cheated me, baby, and told some dirty lies about me
Fooled around with all those other guys
That's why I had to get my khakis pressed
I sure don't need you now, and I don't love you anymore

[Outro]
(Ba-ay-by) Baby
(I-I-I-I) I love you so much, darling
(I, oh, I love you) Why don't you dig me?
(Ba-ay-by) I . . . I dig you but you don't dig me
(Oh, I need you) I don't understand what it is
(Ba-ay-by) I . . . I had my car re-upholstered
(Oh, I love you) I got my hair processed
(Oh, my baby) I got a nice pompadour job on it
(Oh, my love) I bought a new pair of shoes
I got some new khakis and I met you
And we went out to get a Coca-Cola
