When the moon goes down in the dawn
And the sun comes up in the morning
Don't let the sun catch you cryin'
'Cause daddy don't want youDon't let the sun catch you cryin'
Cryin' at my front door
There, you done daddy dirty now
He sure don't want you no moreDon't let the sun catch you lyin'
Lyin' at my front door
Ya daddy's done turn salty
Baby you've made him so, hmmYou can cry, cry, cry
Yes baby, you can wail
Beat your head on the pavement
'Til the man comes and throws you in jailBut don't let the sun catch you cryin'
Cryin' at my front door
You done daddy dirty now
He sure don't want you no moreYou can cry, cry, cry, cry
Yes, baby you can wail
Beat your head on the pavement
'Til the man comes and throws you in jailBut don't let the sun catch you cryin'
Cryin' at my front door
You done daddy dirty
He sure don't want you no moreWhen the moon goes down in the dawnin'
And the sun comes up in the morning
Don't let the sun catch you cryin'
'Cause daddy don't want you no moreI just like that songI don't know who wrote that, but you know, don't let the sun catch you cryin' everybody sings it
Louis Jordan, Ray Charles, all those people
