I've tried and I've tried for so long to please youGave you every bit of my timeGave you everything I could possibly give youMy body, my heart, and my mindI turned my family and good friends against meListened to my own heart breakAnd I did it all in the name of loveGave up myself for your sakeAnd you never cared about meYou only hurt and deceiveI realize after all of these yearsThat you ain't worth the salt in my tearsYou've cheated, you've lied and you've hurt meOver and over againYou promised to love me foreverBut forever reached a bitter sweet endBeen blinded by love to your actionsBut at last I can see my way clearI've cried and I've tried, and I've tried and I've criedBut you, you've never shed one tear'Cause you never cared about meYou only hurt and deceiveI realize after all of these yearsThat you ain't worth the salt in my tearsYou ain't worth, you ain't worth the salt in my tearsTreated like dirt, I'm hurt, I ain't hangin' 'round hereYou've left me crying, left me crying for yearsBut you ain't worth the salt in my tearsYou never cared about meYou only hurt and decieveI realize after all of these yearsThat you ain't worth the salt in my tearsNo you ain't worth the salt in my tears
