And you can leave me at the drop of a dime
Well, I'm not gon' cry, I'm not gon' cry
I was your lover and your secretary
I should've left your ass a thousand times
Working every day of the week
No, I'm not gon' cry, it's not the time
I'm not gon' shed no tears
'Cause you're not worth my tears
No, I'm not gon' cry, it's not the time
No, I'm not gon' cry, it's not the time
No, I'm not gon' cry, it's not the time
Well, I'm not gon' cry, I'm not gon' cry
In love you take your chances
But somehow it seems unfair to me
'Cause you're not worth my tears
Well, I'm not gon' cry, I'm not gon' cry
No, I'm not gon' cry, it's not the time
I should've left your ass a thousand times
I was your lover and your secretary
Well, I'm not gon' cry, I'm not gon' cry
'Cause you're not worth my tears
I'm not gon' shed no tears
Helping you get on your feet
I'm not gon' shed no tears
Eleven years out of my life
No, I'm not gon' cry, it's not the time
'Cause you're not worth my tears
I'm not gon' shed no tears
Look at the circumstances
And you can leave me at the drop of a dime
Helping you get on your feet
I'm not gon' shed no tears
I should've left your ass long time ago
So now when you say that you're leaving me
'Cause you're not worth my tears
Besides the kids I have nothing to show
Well, I'm not gon' cry, I'm not gon' cry
Now you're busy loving someone else
Eleven years of sacrifice
Swallowed my fears, stood by your side
No, I'm not gon' cry, it's not the time
Those were the words that we said from our hearts
Well, I'm not gon' cry, I'm not gon' cry
I'm not gon' shed no tears
Through sickness and health 'til death do us part
I don't get that part
I'm not gon' shed no tears
Eleven years of sacrifice
Was at the job when no one else was there
Swallowed my fears, stood by your side
Well, I'm not gon' cry, I'm not gon' cry
I would stop breathing if you told me to
Well, I'm not gon' cry, I'm not gon' cry
'Cause you're not worth my tears
Wasted my years a fool of a wife
Was at the job when no one else was there
I know there are no guarantees
'Cause you're not worth my tears
I'm not gon' shed no tears
Working every day of the week
