[Chorus]
Tell me why
Why must I cry?
Tell me why
Why must I cry?
Why must I cry?
[Post-Chorus]
Why must I cry?
Why must I cry? Why must I cry? Why?
Why must I cry? Why must I cry? Why?
Why must I cry? Why must I cry? Why?
Why must I cry? Why must I cry? Why?
Why must I cry? Why must I cry? Why?
Why must I cry? Why must I cry?
Tell me why
[Verse 1]
No matter what I did I tried to love this kid
Ever since he was eight
All he ever did was lie and steal from me
Now he's seventeen and I thought that he'd change his ways
But when I look at kid
He's still hating on me
It makes me sad to see this kid
He's still hating on me
He's bad I just can't lie anymore
I gotta push him through the door
Recently the kid stole my jewelry
I turn my back and he steals my gun from me
Kid be careful
You're gonna shoot someone and end up in jail
A death sentence, is that what you want?
I know that you really hate me
But why did you have to do these things to me?
It's not fair you really don't care
Don't understand why you gotta go this route
Don't you understand without a doubt it's the wrong path, understand
[Chorus]
Tell me why
Why must I cry?
Tell me why
Why must I cry?
[Post-Chorus]
Why must I cry? Why must I cry? Why?
Why must I cry? Why must I cry? Why?
Why must I cry? Why must I cry?
Tell me why
Why must I cry? Why must I cry? Why?
Why must I cry? Why must I cry? Why?
Why must I cry? Why must I cry?
Tell me why
[Verse 2]
Tammie Starr
Who do you think you are?
Using those kids as weapons you know it's not fair
Tyler I really love you and I really miss you and Deja
Now I got twins on the way
Tammie Starr you've gone away
California
Haven't heard from ya that's why
[Chorus]
Tell me why
Why must I cry?
Tell me why
Why must I cry?
