Black Tears

歌詞

She puts on her work clothes, fishnet pantyhose, She's got a nickname everybody knows at the gentlemen's club She 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, And she wears the pain Black tears, rolling down, From the eyes of an angel in a sinner's town She reveals, and they all cheer, Then she cries, black tears Jealous 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 while The wrong kind of famous in her momma's eyes, You can tell she knows it when she cries Black tears, rolling down From the eyes of an angel in a sinner's town, White lights on the mirror, Just won't hide, black tears She tries and tries so hard to get away But everybody's watching Black tears, rolling down, From the eyes of an angel in a sinner's town, If all the pain would just disappear She'd quit cryin', yeah she'd quit cryin', Black tears
