As I sat here in your door, girl,
there's something I must tell you before I say goodbye
You really know how to hurt a guy
You really know how to make him cry
It don't bother you in the least
But you're breaking me up
Piece by piece
By little bitty pieces
Darling, listen to me
Slowly, slowly
Oh, you're tearing me down
That's what you're to me
Listen now
Faster, faster, oh,
you spread your little world all around town
Oh, yes, you do
You said my love don't satisfy you,
darling
Now don't you know that
what makes a strong man cry
Cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry,
You really know how to hurt a guy
You really know how to hurt a guy
Oh, you could have faced me
All an d told me we were through
Let me tell you what
you've done about it
But you disgraced me, yeah
Oh, what a doggone mean thing to do
Oh, that's what you've
done about me, girl
You didn't give my love a chance
Now I must stand up and tell
The whole wide world
Got to tell them, darling
And this is what I'm gonna tell them
You really,
really know how to hurt a guy
You really, know how to make him cry
You really know just how to hurt a guy
You really,
really know how to make him cry
