Did You Ever Want To Cry |
Did you ever want to cry, |
But you didn’t know just why? |
Did you ever sit up all night long |
Just listening to that same old song — |
The one they played when she said nothin' could go wrong? |
Right, I know you did; |
oh, you kid — |
Did you really think that she’d be true? |
Wasn’t that rather naive of you? |
And now she’s dropped you like a worn-out shoe. |
She’s got you drinking gin, |
And you know that’s a sin. |
You go honky-tonkin' every night; |
You get drunk and then you start a fight. |
I know that you think that it’s alright — |
Wrong, it’s not the way to live; |
you only get what you give! |
You can live your life just as you please, |
But, when you lie with dogs, you gotta get fleas. |
And now she’s brought you down to your knees. |
Arms that used to hold you tight — |
You miss them in the middle of night. |
You burned a candle at both ends; |
Now it’s too late… too late to make amends. |
You’ve even lost your old time friends… |
Enemies glad to see you down; |
People, they don’t want you hangin' round. |
Did you ever want to cry, |
But you didn’t know just why? |
Right, I know you did. |
Wrong, it’s not the way to live. |
Did you ever want to cry… |
