She puts on her work clothes, fishnet panty hose,She’s got a nickname that everyone knows at the Gentlemen’s clubShe clocks in at midnight, even though it never feels right,Makes her money one dollar at a time.Without the makeup, nobody knows her name,She wears the pain(Chorus)Black tears, rollin down, from the eyes of an angel in a sinner’s townShe reveals, they all cheer, then she cry’s,Black tearsJealous of the innocent, sometimes she’s convinced,The boss man is still a friend she needs.She’s tried everything, cheap sex and cocaine,Anything to hide the pain for a little whileWrong kind of famous in her momma’s eyes, you can tell she knows it when she cries,(Chorus)Black tears, rolling down from the eyes of an angel in a sinner’s town,White lights on the mirrors, just won’t hide,Black tearsShe tries and tries so hard to get awayBut everybody’s watching,(Chorus)Black tears, rollin down, from the eyes of an angel in a sinner’s town,If all the pain could just disappear she'd quit cryin, shed quit cryin,Black tears
