Midnight, lay my head on my pillow
Listen to the screamin', man he's cussin' her like a dog
I live in 201, they're in 202
I say a little prayer 'cause I've been there and I stayed too long
I knocked on their door yesterday to see if everything was alright
He said everything's just fine
She just likes to cry, she likes to get her way
There's no reason for you to pry, everything's okay
These walls are paper thin so if you hear her again
You'll know the reason why she just likes to cry
Then today I was lookin' out my window
Saw their little girl out on the playground on the monkey bars
So I walked down and saw her bruises
That's when he walked up, said girl shut up and get in the car
With tears rollin' down her face she climbed up in that seat
And he turned and said to me
She just likes to cry, she likes to get her way
I told the girl to stay inside but she just had to play
She's just like her mama causin' drama
Now you know the reason why she just likes to cry
I pulled in from work today, police cars parked outside
I heard him tell the officers as I walked by
She just likes to cry, she likes to get her way
I promise you I wouldn't lie, everything's okay
These walls are paper thin so if someone calls again
You'll know the reason why she just likes to cry
She just likes to cry
So I turned around and put my head down and cried
