Cry Wolf

© Caroline Aiken, Glutton For Publishment, BMI

We came running on your first alarm
The whole town turned out
So you would not come to harm
But it was just a joke, you were having fun
Child that truth is naked in the morning sun

CHORUS
Cry wolf nobody hears
Cry wolf alligator tears
Cry wolf nobody home
It’s the devil to pay when it’s just you
And that big bad wolf alone

Second time you should’ve seen your face
The fool you made of me
Would be your last mistake
But it was just a joke, you were having fun
Child that truth is naked in the morning sun

CHORUS

Third time came late at night
Got the shade pulled down
My door locked up tight
It was no joke baby
You weren’t having fun
Child that truth is naked in the morning sun

Cry wolf nobody hears
Cry wolf alligator tears
Cry wolf nobody home

Yea, just you and the big bad wolf baby
How you like me now, baby?
Cry wolf
