How do I stretch the backs of my thighs out?

I woke up with a terrible muscle cramp in the back of my thigh at 2 a.m. A friend suggested stretching before bed, but I don't know how to stretch that area. I could use some advice.

if you are referring to hamstrings.....sit on floor both legs straight in front of you and reach for toes. standing feet shoulder width apart, legs straight, reach for each ankle and to the floor.
