Think I've set the world record

For how far mascara can run

When it comes to swimmin' in sorrow, I'm the champion

I even got my speech ready

For when I get the good news

That my name made the Hall of Fame for having the blues

I'm the belle of the ball

Bawling my way through the pity party for myself

If they could see me the heartbreak committee

Wouldn't nominate anyone else

I'd lead the parade, waving all day

If I could get up from the couch

When they're giving out prizes for crying out eyes

Just hand me the doggone crown

You're looking at royalty

I'm the Home Cryin' Queen

Never been a quitter

That's why I can't give up feeling sad

Now I'm at the top of rock bottom

And it ain't so bad

'Cause I'm the belle of the ball

Bawling my way through the pity party for myself

If they could see me the heartbreak committee

Wouldn't nominate anyone else

I'd lead the parade, waving all day

If I could get up from the couch

When they're giving out prizes for crying out eyes

Just hand me the doggone crown

You're looking at royalty

I'm the Home Cryin' Queen

There's been so much salty water rolling off these cheeks

There's a whole new ocean in my yard and they're gonna

Name it after me

'Cause I'm the belle of the ball

Bawling my way through the pity party for myself

If they could see me the heartbreak committee

Wouldn't nominate anyone else

I'm the belle of the ball

Bawling my way through the pity party for myself

If they could see me the heartbreak committee

Wouldn't nominate anyone else

I'd lead the parade, waving all day

If I could get up from the couch

When they're giving out prizes for crying out eyes

Just hand me the doggone crown

You're looking at royalty

I'm the Home Cryin' Queen

No need to feel sorry for me

I'm the Home Cryin' Queen
