CRY'IN SHAME

(RON HARMON)
CRYIN’ SHAME
By Ron Harmon


Stop wasting my time – you make things complicated.
I’ll be alright just say what’s on your mind.
It’s not what you say, it’s in the way you say it.
I’d like to leave it all behind.
‘Cause you don’t know what you’re doing
on a road that leads to nowhere

It’s a cryin’ shame your life is so darn crazy.
It’s a cryin’ shame you need someone to blame.
It’s a cryin’ shame that you are fat and lazy.
Cigarettes and beer won’t wipe away your tears
- it’s a cryin’ shame

Get drunk and get high, party ‘til you’re wasted –
Try to erase some old memory.
Everything you want, you’re everything I hated –
Everything I never wanted to be,
and I don’t know where you going
and I won’t know until you get there

It’s a cryin’ shame your life is so darn crazy.
It’s a cryin’ shame you need someone to blame.
It’s a cryin’ shame that you are fat and lazy.
Cigarettes and beer won’t wipe away your tears
- it’s a cryin’ shame

It’s a cryin’ shame your life is so darn crazy.
It’s a cryin’ shame you need someone to blame.
It’s a cryin’ shame that you are fat and lazy.
Cigarettes and beer won’t wipe away your tears
Or return your wasted years
- it’s a cryin’ shame
