She puts on her work clothes fishnet panty hose
She's got a nickname that everyone knows at the Gentlemen's club
She clocks in at midnight even though it never feels right
Makes her money one dollar at a time.
Without the makeup nobody knows her name
She wears the pain
Black tears rollin down from the eyes of an angel in a sinner's town
She reveals they all cheer then she cry's
Black tears
Jealous of the innocent sometimes she's convinced
The boss man is still a friend she needs.
She's tried everything cheap sex and cocaine
Anything to hide the pain for a little while
Wrong kind of famous in her momma's eyes you can tell she knows it when she cries
Black tears rolling down from the eyes of an angel in a sinner's town
White lights on the mirrors just won't hide
Black tears
She tries and tries so hard to get away
But everybody's watching
Black tears rollin down from the eyes of an angel in a sinner's town
If all the pain could just disappear she'd quit cryin shed quit cryin
Black tears
