[James & Fuqua]
Cry, cryin´ shame, shame
Cry, cryin´ shame, yeah

[James]

Yeah, yeah, yeah
You said you didn´t wanna love nobody else
If you wasn´t lovin´ me, whoa baby
Yeah, don´t you know you did me wrong, yeah
You kissed and she let you hold her
No tellin´ what you might´ve told her
But we´re through

[James & Fuqua]
Cry, cryin´ shame, shame
Cry, cryin´ shame, yeah

[Fuqua]
Well, you said you didn´t wanna talk to nobody
Unless you was a-talkin´ to me, but whoa, ooh yeah
You´re talkin´ to everybody you see right now, mmm

You smiled and you started winkin´
And I know just what you were thinkin´
Now we´re through

[James & Fuqua]
If you believe in a better world, a destiny
A-turnin´ back the hands of time
Baby if our love was meant to be
Oh we´ll get together further on down the line
But for now it´s a cryin´ shame, shame
But for now it´s a cryin´ shame, yeah

[James]
Yeah, you said you didn´t wanna be smackin´ on nobody else
If you wasn´t kissin´ me
But you, you, you, you
You kiss everybody you see

You did it, forget it, admit it, let´s quit it
Yeah yeah, we´re through

[Fuqua]
You lied, you cheated
And I´m getting so doggone tired of being mistreated
Now we´re through

[James & Fuqua]
Cry, cryin´ shame, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Cry, cryin´ shame, whoo, oh yes mam, now right now
Cry, cryin´ shame, cry cry cry cry cry
Cry, cryin´ shame
