Sad Girl
Everlast Lyrics

I seen her at a stop light on Alverano
I spotted her at a red light on Alverano street

Was sittin' in a pearl white Eldorado
She was sitting in a pearl white Eldorado luxury car

In a gangsta lean she were revvin' the throttle
She was tilting the car to one side and revving the engine

Got a sticker on the bumper say she like techano
She had a sticker on the car's bumper that shows her interest in Tejano music

She looked like Selena, the truth couldn't be plainer
She resembled Selena and it was apparent to everyone

She like a gangsta boogie, her mama calls her cookie
She has a gangsta boogie style and her mother calls her cookie

My friends call her a sad girl cause her man went away
My friends refer to her as a sad girl because her man left her

And he ain't never coming back, so cry another tattoo sea
Her man won't return, so she cries oceans of tattoo ink

Sad girl living on the east side of the city
A melancholic girl residing in the eastern part of the city

Proud woman, boy, she don't want none of your pity
She's a proud woman and doesn't want your sympathy

Sad girl got no one to rely on
The sad girl has nobody to depend upon

Proud woman don't need your shoulder to cry on
Being a proud woman, she doesn't need your shoulder to cry on

I seen her at the market she was pushing a stroller
I saw her at the market, pushing a stroller with her baby inside

Smoking on a cigarette, drinkin' a soda
She was smoking a cigarette and drinking soda simultaneously

Laughin' at a joke that somebody just told her
She was laughing at a joke that someone just shared with her

Got her baby's name tattooed on the back of her shoulder
She had her baby's name tattooed on her back shoulder

She looked like an angel, she talked like the devil
She appeared to be an angel, but her speech was devilish

She looked like a stranger, she lived like a rebel
Although she looked unfamiliar, she led a rebellious lifestyle

Hey sad girl, we can take this slow
Addressing the sad girl, he suggests they can start at a slower pace

Baby what you lookin' for, let me know
He asks the girl what she wants and requests her to tell him

You say you want a man that can give you some dough
He informs her that she desires a wealthy partner

You say buy my babie's shoes and buy him a coat
She requests him to buy shoes for her baby and a coat for him

And buy my baby food to put down his throat
She also asks him to purchase baby food for her child

I won't play you like a ho, it ain't like that yo
He assures her that he won't take advantage of her and he doesn't have any bad intentions

Let me holler at you later, we can go to the show
He requests to talk to her later and suggests they could go for a performance together

I ain't tryna rock the boat, I'm tryna keep you afloat
He asserts that he isn't causing any trouble, and he wants to support her

I seen her at the post office mailing a letter
He saw her mailing a letter at the post office

She couldn't send no money but she made him a sweater
Although she couldn't send any money, she made a sweater for him

She's talking on the pay phone and something upset her
She was conversing on a pay phone, and something distressed her

I really want to hold her but I only just met her
He has only recently got to know her but desires to hug her

But I could tell she'd been crying, she said she felt like dying
By looking at her, he could tell she was weeping, and she expressed feeling depressed

She never been so alone no, she gotta make it on her own though
She's never felt so lonely in her life and has to make her way by herself

And he ain't never coming back
Her man isn't returning
