[Verse 1]
I don't need your lovin'
Your sometime lovin'
You give it to me, you take it back
You go away, and then you make me suffer
But I'm tired of hurting inside
Shedding tears I can't hide
[Chorus]
I don't want nobody's gonna make me cry
I don't want nobody's gonna make me cry
[Verse 2]
You can keep your kisses
Your lyin' and cheatin'
You build me up, you let me down
With other girls you kept runnin' 'round
Oh, it's all over and done
I think you like breaking hearts for fun
[Chorus]
But I don't want nobody's gonna make me cry
I don't want nobody's gonna make me cry
[Verse 3]
I'm gonna dry my eyes (Dry my eyes)
I'm gonna throw away my handkerchief (Oh yes)
I'm gonna sleep (Sleep)
Sleep (Sleep)
Sleep (Sleep), oh yeah
And I won't have to count no sheep
Mmmhmm, mmmhmm
[Chorus]
Oh I don't want nobody's gonna make me cry
Oh I (I) don't (Don't) want nobody's gonna make me cry
Don't need nobody
I (I) don't (Don't) want nobody's gonna make me cry
I ain't gonna help nobody
Oh I (I) don't (Don't)
I don't need your lovin'
Your sometime lovin'
You give it to me, you take it back
You go away, and then you make me suffer
But I'm tired of hurting inside
Shedding tears I can't hide
[Chorus]
I don't want nobody's gonna make me cry
I don't want nobody's gonna make me cry
[Verse 2]
You can keep your kisses
Your lyin' and cheatin'
You build me up, you let me down
With other girls you kept runnin' 'round
Oh, it's all over and done
I think you like breaking hearts for fun
[Chorus]
But I don't want nobody's gonna make me cry
I don't want nobody's gonna make me cry
[Verse 3]
I'm gonna dry my eyes (Dry my eyes)
I'm gonna throw away my handkerchief (Oh yes)
I'm gonna sleep (Sleep)
Sleep (Sleep)
Sleep (Sleep), oh yeah
And I won't have to count no sheep
Mmmhmm, mmmhmm
[Chorus]
Oh I don't want nobody's gonna make me cry
Oh I (I) don't (Don't) want nobody's gonna make me cry
Don't need nobody
I (I) don't (Don't) want nobody's gonna make me cry
I ain't gonna help nobody
Oh I (I) don't (Don't)
