Mary J. Blige - Not Gon' Cry lyrics

rate me

Baby, baby, baby, baby<br />

Help me out here, c'mon<br />

<br />

While all the time that I was loving you<br />

You were busy loving yourself<br />

I would stop breathing if you told me to<br />

Now you're busy loving someone else<br />

<br />

Eleven years out of my life<br />

Besides the kids I have nothing to show<br />

Wasted my years a fool of a wife<br />

I shoulda have left your ass a long time ago<br />

<br />

Well, I'm not gon cry, I'm not gon cry<br />

I'm not gon shed no tears<br />

No, I'm not gon cry, it's not the time<br />

'Cuz you're not worth my tears<br />

<br />

Well, I'm not gon cry, I'm not gon cry<br />

I'm not gon shed no tears<br />

No, I'm not gon cry, it's not the time<br />

'Cuz you're not worth my tears<br />

<br />

I was your lover and your secretary<br />

Working every day of the week<br />

Was at the job when no one else was there<br />

Helping you get on your feet<br />

<br />

Eleven years of sacrifice<br />

And you can leave me at the drop of a dime<br />

Swallowed my fears, stood by your side<br />

I shoulda left your ass a thousand times<br />

<br />

Well, I'm not gon cry, I'm not gon cry<br />

I'm not gon shed no tears<br />

No, I'm not gon cry, it's not the time<br />

'Cuz you're not worth my tears<br />

<br />

Well, I'm not gon cry, I'm not gon cry<br />

I'm not gon shed no tears<br />

No, I'm not gon cry, it's not the time<br />

'Cuz you're not worth my tears<br />

<br />

I know there are no guarantees<br />

See in love you take your chances<br />

But somehow it seems fucked up to me<br />

Just look at the circumstances<br />

<br />

Through sickness and health<br />

'Till death do us part<br />

Those were the words<br />

That we said from our hearts<br />

<br />

So now when you say<br />

That you're leaving me<br />

I don't get that part, hell no<br />

<br />

I was your lover and your secretary<br />

Working every day of the week<br />

Was at the job when no one else was there<br />

Helping him get on his feet<br />

<br />

Eleven years of sacrifice<br />

And he can leave me at the drop of a dime<br />

Swallowed my fears, stood by your side<br />

I shoulda left your ass a thousand times<br />

<br />

Well, I'm not gon cry, I'm not gon cry<br />

I'm not gon shed no tears<br />

No, I'm not gon cry, it's not the time<br />

'Cuz you're not worth my tears<br />

<br />

Well, I'm not gon cry, I'm not gon cry<br />

I'm not gon shed no tears<br />

No, I'm not gon cry, it's not the time<br />

'Cuz you're not worth my tears<br />

<br />

Well, I'm not gon cry, I'm not gon cry<br />

I'm not gon shed no tears<br />

No, I'm not gon cry, it's not the time<br />

'Cuz you're not worth my tears<br />

<br />

Well, I'm not gon cry, I'm not gon cry<br />

I'm not gon shed no tears<br />

No, I'm not gon cry, it's not the time<br />

'Cuz you're not worth my tears<br />

<br />

I said he was never, ever, ever, ever<br />

Ever, ever, ever, ever<br />

Worth any of these tears<br />

{He wasn't worth it<br />

Was he worth it ladies? Hell no<br />

You know what<br />

We ain't gonna miss him, fuck it<br />

But guess what}<br /><br />
