You’re Crying Boy, Crying

Linda Martell

Compositor: Fred Burch

With me, you had it made in the shade
But you walked right out on your way
Someday you’re gonna faint like a little boy
You done hurt the only one who can bring you joy

You’ll be crying boy, cryin’ a little bit every day
Wiltin’ on the vine, boy, you’ll just fade away
You’re crying boy, crying when I don’t come around
Without my lovin’ then you’ll be just like dirt on the ground

You’re like a little flower got no Sun
I was your sunshine once, now that’s done
Someday, you’ll wake up, tears and pain
Realize that I'm gone, cry in pain

You’ll be crying boy, crying a little bit every day
Oh, wiltin’ on the vine, boy, you’ll just fade away
You’re crying boy, crying when I don’t come around
Without my lovin’ then you’ll be just like dirt on the ground

And like a mousetrap, your little mind’s gon’ snap
And baby divine, you’re gonna find that

Someday you’ll awake to tears and pain
Realize that I'm gone, cry in pain
I won’t come to your call, I won’t play
You done threw the best thing in your life away

You’ll be cryin boy, cryin’ a little bit every day
Wiltin’ on the vine, boy, you’ll just fade away
You’re crying boy, crying when I don’t come around
Without my lovin’ then you’ll be just like dirt on the ground
