Cry Baby
Cry, cry, baby, cry, baby, cry, baby,
Welcome back home.
Now he told you, that he loved you much more than I
But he left you and you don't you just don't know why
And when you don't know what to do
You come running and
Cry, cry, baby, cry, baby, cry, baby,
Welcome back home.
Well, I can always lose,
Don' you know nobody can love you the way that I do
Take the pain and the heartache too
Ah, honey, you know that I'll be around
When you need to
Cry, cry, baby, cry, baby, cry, baby,
Welcome back home.
Welcome back home
(SPOKEN:)
I've spent so many nights
Just waiting for you to come walking through that door
And even tho you've made a fool of me so many times before
I know that all it takes is just the sight of your face
To make me realize that I will always love you, darlin'
And I can see that you got some more tears to shed
I can see it, baby, 'cause your eyes, your eyes are getting red
So c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
Cry, cry, baby, cry, baby, cry, baby,
Cry, cry, baby, cry, baby, cry, baby
Joplin's Version
Cry, baby, cry, baby, cry, baby,
Welcome back home.
I know she told you,
I know she told you that she loved you
Much more than I do,
But I know she left you,
And you swear that you just don't know why,
Well, you know that I'll always be round
If you ever want me
Come on and cry, cry, baby, cry, baby, cry, baby, yeah,
Oh, like you always seem to do.
Don't you know,
Honey, nobody ever gonna love you
The way I try to do.
Who'll be willing to take your pain
And all your heartache, too
Honey, I swear I'll always, I'll always be around
If you ever want me
Come on and cry, cry, baby, cry, baby, yeah, cry, baby, yeah
Oh, daddy, welcome back home, yeah.
I know when you're sharp and round, babe,
Seems like the grass always looks greener,
When you're looking over there in somebody else's backyard
So I know what you're tryin' to tell me
When you say, mama, mama, mama, mama, mama,
I've gotta go out shopping for my life
I've gotta find my, my own true third eye,
Hare Krishna identity out there on the road there.
And although it may be comfortable here
Sleeping in all your nice bed with all those satin sheets
And all that nice fur, eatin' all that chicken
Gettin' stoned, havin' a good time, I have to go and rough it
I have to go to Africa
Or I have to go to Omaha, or some place like that,
I have to find myself, you know what I mean
So there's this stud, man, walkin' around the fuckin' highways of America with a pack on his back
Lookin' for his identity, right
Well, I want to say, baby, don't you know you left your mama here all alone
You left your good lovin' mama right at home
And that should be identity enough for any man, ha ha ha!
So I said, baby, I know that you're gonna come home to me some day
And I'll be able to tell when you walk in my front door
I do, I just do believe that I can be lookin' in your eyes
So Lord, you finally realize
So you can put your head on my shoulder, babe,
'Cause I know you got some more tears to share,
Come on, let it go,
So come on, come on, come on, come on, come on,
Honey, cry, cry, baby, cry, baby, cry,
Honey, when you got some more tears to shed
Honey, I won't let a man stand in your way, babe,
You have to snap all your fear from the door house away dear
You just gotta let it go, baby, come on,
Honey, cry, oh, cry to me, baby.
Is it a hit or a miss
