Coda:

D Em/D D Em/D [continue]
I know now that you're not a plaything
I cry like a baby (just like a little bitty baby now)
As I look back on a love so sweet, now
I cry like a baby (just like a little bitty baby now)
Every road is a lonely street
I cry like a baby (cry like a baby)
My heart just fell to my feet, you know I
Cry like a baby (cry like a baby)
You left the water running, now
(Cry like a baby)
I cry like a baby (cry like a baby) [fade]
