Lyrics

[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 Bridge] 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
