CRY CRY CRY

(feat. Merle Haggard)

(Jenkins, Salazar, Cash)





Originally recorded/performed by Johnny Cash



Johnny Cash, Johnny Cash, Johnny Cash, Johnny Cash,



Johnny Cash trying to calm the criminal, soothed and imprisoned by a Memphis summer hymnal, with a saftey razor and a good man's nightmare, and that long road out of here paved with words that he don't believe, and a bitch of a woman caused the man in black to grieve



Everybody knows where you go when the sun goes down

I think you only live to see the lights of town

I wasted my time when I would try, try, try

‘Cause when the lights have lost their glow you'll cry, cry, cry



Soon your sugardaddies will all be gone

You wake up some cold day and find you're alone

You'll call for me but I'm gonna tell you bye, bye, bye

When I turn around and walk away you'll cry, cry, cry



You're gonna cry, cry, cry and you'll cry alone

When everyone's forgotten and you're left on your own

You're gonna cry, cry, cry



I lie awake at night to wait ‘till you come in

You stay a little while and then you're gone again

Every question that I ask I get a lie, lie, lie

For every lie you tell you're gonna cry, cry, cry



You're gonna cry, and then you'll, you'll cry alone

When everyone's forgotten and you're left on your own

You're gonna cry, cry, cry, cry



When your fickle love gets old, and no one will care for you

You'll come back for me for a little love that's true

I'll tell you no and then you'll ask me why, why, why

When I remind you of all of this you'll cry, cry, cry



You're gonna cry, cry, cry and you, you'll want me then

It'll hurt when you think of all the fool you've been

You're gonna cry, cry, cry, cry

Cry, cry, cry, cry

You're gonna cry, cry, cry



Johnny Cash trying to calm the criminal, soothed and imprisoned by a Memphis summer hymnal, with a saftey razor...



It's gonna hurt you, hurt you
