The Mamas And The Papas - Did you ever want to cry?

(John Phillips)
Did you ever want to cry,
But you didn`t know just why?
Did you ever sit up all night long
Just listening to that same old song---
The one they played when she said nothin?could go wrong?
Right, I know you did; oh, you kid---
Did you really think that she`s be true?
Wasn`t that rather naive of you?
And now she`s dropped you like a worn-out shoe.

She`s got you drinking gin,
And you know that`s a sin.
You go honky-tonkin` every night;
You get drunk and then you start a fight.
I know that you think that it`s alright---
Wrong, it`s not the way to live; you only get what you give!
You can live your life just as you please,
But, when you lie with dogs, you gotta get fleas.
And now she`s brought you down to your knees.
Arms that used to hold you tight---
You miss them in the middle of night.
You burned a candle at both ends;
Now it`s too late...too late to make amends.
You`re even lost your old time friends...

Enemies glad to see you down;
People, they don`t want you hangin?round.
Did you ever want to cry,
But you didn`t know just why?
Right, I know you did.
Wrong, it`s not the way to live.
Did you ever want to cry...
