Lyrics
Crying Man Blues -1978 Rick Garvin
1.When a woman feels the blues, she hangs her pretty head down, and cries.
When a woman feels the blues, she hangs her pretty head down, and cries.
But when a man feels down, there ain't nothing he can do but die.
2. No, a man can't free his tears, but his feelings, they are just as strong.
No, a man can't free his tears, but his feelings, they are just as strong.
And if he keeps them to himself, you know it's bound to hurt his health before long.
Bridge
Now I know that I don't usually feel so lonely.
And I know that I don't usually sing the blues.
But you know, ever since that day, when you took your love away,
I been feeling, I got nothing left to lose.
3. Cause I'm raining in my heart, and I know that it's all thanks to you
Yeah, I'm raining in my heart, and I know that it's all thanks to you
See the tears are rollin' down, I got them crying man blues.
