I seen her at a stoplight on Alverano
Was sittin in a pearl white Eldorado
In a gangsta lean she was revvin' the throttle
She looked like Selena
Got a sticker on the bumper say she like techano
She like a gangster boogie
The truth couldn't be plainer
Her mommy calls her cookie
'coz her man went away
My friends call her a sad girl
So cry a another tattoo sea
Sad girl livin' on the east side of the city
And he ain't never comin' back
Proud woman boy, she don't want none of your pity
Sad girl got no one to rely on
Proud woman don't need your shoulder to cry on
I seen her at the market she was pushin' a stroller
Smokin' on a cigarette, drinkin' a soda
Laughin' at a joke that somebody just told her
Got her baby's name tattooed on the back of her shoulder
She looked like an angel
She talked like the devil
She looked like a stranger
She lived like a rebel
My friends call her a sad girl
'coz her man went away
So cry a another tattoo sea
And he ain't never comin' back
Proud woman boy, she don't want none of your pity
Sad girl livin' on the east side of the city
Sad girl got no one to rely on
Proud woman don't need your shoulder to cry on
Face that girl we can take this slow
You say you want a man that can give you some dough
Baby what you looken for? Let me know.
You say buy my baby shoes and maybe buy him a coat
And buy my baby food to put down his throat
I won't play you like a hoe, it ain't like that yo
I aint tryna rock the boat I'm tryna keep you afloat
Let me holla at you later, we can go to the show
I seen her at the post office mailin' a letter
She couldn't send no money but she made him a sweater
She's talkin' on the pay phone and somethin' upset her
She said she felt like dyin'
I really wanna hold her but I only just met her
But I could tell she'd been crying
She never been so alone, no
She gotta make it on her own now
She's a sad girl 'coz her man went away and he ain't never comin' back
Sad girl livin' on the east side of the city
Proud woman boy, she don't want none of your pity
Proud woman don't need your shoulder to cry on
Sad girl
Sad girl got no one to rely on
Sad girl
Sad girl
Sad girl
Sad girl
Sad girl
Sad girl
