Cry, baby, cry, cry, baby cry,
Just the way I did the day you broke my heart
Cry, baby, cry, you flew too high
Tables turned and now you've learned you're not so smart
You broke every promise
You couldn't be true
You gave me the go-by
For somebody new when I needed you
Cry, baby, cry. My eyes are dry.
I'm laughin' up my sleeve to see my cry baby cry.

CRY, BABY, CRY
(Jimmy Eaton / Terry Shand)

Larry Clinton & His Orch. - 1938


If teardrops could flood an ocean
I have a notion
You'd try.
You'd make it in extra fast time
Just as a pastime
Easy as pie
Each time you
Cry, baby, cry
Just the way I did the day you broke my heart
Cry, baby, cry
Tables turn and now you've learned you're not so smart
You broke every promiseá
You couldn't be true
You gave me the go-by
For somebody new when I needed you
So cry, baby, cry.
My eyes are dry.
I'm laughin' up my sleeve to see my cry baby cry.
Cry, baby, cry (2)
Just the way I did the day you broke my heart
Cry, baby, cry
You feel too high
Tables turn and now you've learned you're not so smart
You broke every promiseá
You couldn't be true
You gave me the go-by
For somebody new when I needed you
So cry, baby, cry.
My eyes are dry.
I'm laughin', yes laughin'!
I'm laughin' up my sleeve to see my cry-baby cry.
