i was born to cry

Dion And The Belmonts

Yeah, yeah, yeah

I d like to tell you something
All about the good and the bad
I wish today the world, my friends
Would stop being sad

There s so much evil round us
I feel that I could die
And I know, yeah
That I was born to cry

Well, if I ever told you
All about the things I have done
I can t remember having
Even one day of fun

I don t know what I m doing
If I do, it s a lie
But I know that I
Was born to cry

Yeah, cry
I said cry, oh, yeah, cry
Oh, yeah, oh

Well, every girl I ever loved
Always stepped right on my feet
I thought I had a friend once
But he kicked out my teeth

The things I like and wanna have
I can t even buy
But I know, yeah
That I was born to cry

Well, I know someday
And maybe soon
That master will call
And when he does
I ll you something
Ha ha, I won t cry at all

Until it happens, folks
I ll sail with that tide
And I know, yeah
That I was born to cry

Well, I said cry, oh, yeah
Cry, oh, yeah, cry
I said don t you know
That I was born to cry
Well, I cry, cry, cry, cry

Yeah, well, I know
Someday and maybe soon
That master will call
And when he does
I ll you something
I won t cry at all

Until it happens, folks
I guess I ll sail with the tide
And I know that I was born to cry
