You told me you want my love oh
And it’s what you turned your back on
cry me a river, cry me a river
You thought you would have your fun
Then run back into my arms
Cry me a river, cry me a river
Maybe you should make yourself
Useful to me one last time and
Cry me a river, cry me a river
Baby boy oh cry me a river
Cry me a river, cry me a river
Baby boy oh cry me a river
Cry me a river, cry me a river
Like the Amazon or the Great Nile
like the Volta, cry me a river
Like the Amazon or the Great Nile
like the Volta, cry me a river
Lia machozi nipikie chai
Lia machizi niende shambani
Lia machozi nitateka maji
Lia kama mvua ya Budalangi
You told me you want my love oh
And it’s what you turned your back on
Cry me a river, cry me a river
You thought you would have your fun
Then run back into my arms
Cry me a river, cry me a river
Cry me a river, cry me a river
Baby boy oh, cry me a river
Cry me a river, cry me a river
Baby boy oh, cry me a river
Cry me a river, cry me a river
Like the Amazon or the Great Nile
Like the Volta, cry me a river
Like the Amazon or the Great Nile
Like the Volta, cry me a river
Baby cry me a river
Baby cry me a river
Baby cry me a river
Baby cry me a river
