AIN'T LIFE A CRYING SHAME
(Tony Senn / Harry McDowell)

Marty Robbins - 1962




I'm tied to someone that's true
And yet I love another too
Ooh, ain't life a crying shame

I hate to hurt them either one
I want 'em both, can't have but one
Ooh, ain't life a crying shame

I wish I knew which way to turn
Which love light should I let burn
Makes no difference how I choose
I can't win, I'll only lose

Bound to break somebody's heart
Tear somebody's world apart
Ooh, ain't life a crying shame

(Instrumental Break)

I wish I knew which way to turn
Which love light should I let burn
Makes no difference how I choose
I can't win, I'll only lose

Bound to break somebody's heart
Tear somebody's world apart
Ooh, ain't life a crying shame
