Lyrics

Cry baby, Cry baby, Cry baby.
Honey, welcome back home

I know she told you. Hony, I know she told you that she loved you. Much more than I did. But I know that she left you. And you swear that you just don't know why.But you know, hony, I'll always, I'll always be around. If you ever want me.

Come on and cry, cry baby, Cry baby, Cry baby.
Oh honey, welcome back home.

Don′t you know. Honey, ain′t nobody ever gonna love you. The way I try to do. Who'll take all your pain. And your heartache too? And if you need me you know that I′ll always be around. If you ever want me

Come on and cry, cry baby, Cry baby, Cry baby.
Oh, daddy, like you always sayin' to do.

And when you walk around the world, babe. You said you′d try to look for the end of the road. You might find out later that the road will end in Detroit, Hony, the road will even end in Kathmandu.

You can go all around the world. Tryin' to find something to do with your life, baby. When you only gotta do one thing well. You only gotta do one thing well to make it in this world, babe.

You got a woman waitin′ for you there. All you ever gotta do is be a good man one time to one woman. And that′ll be the end of the road, babe. I know you got more tears to share, babe.

So come on, come on, come on, come on, come on.
And cry, cry baby, cry baby, cry...

And if you ever feel a little lonely, dear. I want you to come on, come on to mama now. And if you ever want a little love of a woman.

Come on and baby, baby, baby, babe, babe, baby now.
Cry baby, yeah.
